Does the device need to be hot-pluggable or even user_creatable at all?
It seems like it is also using serial_hds[] directly, so that is a good
indication that it is *not* user creatable. So maybe the easiest fix is
to simply set
dc->user_creatable = false;
in macio_class_init() ?

I believe it should fail anyhow during realize because both macio
devices (newworld and oldworld) requires an object link to the PIC which
won't be set when using device_add via the monitor as in your example.
But it still doesn't quite feel right that just setting a property value
should abort() immediately. Daniel, any thoughts?
