Do not include patches that essentially add dead code.  It is nice to
have hardware-reduced support, but if you want to contribute it you need
to add a user as well, for example the ARM virt machine type.

In fact, using it in the ARM virt machine type is a no-brainer, so doing
that change (even if it's not yet part of NEMU) would be an excellent
way to reduce your delta, without going through the processing of
convincing QEMU maintainers of the advantages of your new x86 machine type.
