FWIW, I've seen similar crashes while working on my HMP device_add
tester, when I skipped the device_del and plugged-in the devices a
couple of times instead. I think this happens because some devices are
doing a vmstate_register() in their instance_init() or realize()
function, instead of using dc->vmsd as they should. However, with the
git master branch as of today (31bc1d8481af414cfa2857f905e), I am
currently not able anymore to reproduce the problem with the HMP
device_add tester, so one of the recent "set user_creatable = false"
patches might have fixed the issue for me already...
