The device can not be instantiated on many non-x86 and just prints some error messages, e.g.:
$ qemu-system-ppc64 -device vmxnet3 -M g3beige [vmxnet3][WR][vmxnet3_init_msix]: Failed to initialize MSI-X, error -95 [vmxnet3][WR][vmxnet3_pci_realize]: Failed to initialize MSI-X, configuration is inconsistent. Since vmxnet3 is a para-virtualized device that is only useful on x86, it should also only be enabled on the x86 targets.
