From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lur...@redhat.com>

As it should be, since the argument isn't owned by the callee,
but a lot of code in QEMU rely on non-const arguments to tweak it.

Since Rust types / bindings are derived from the C version, we have to
be more accurate there to do correct ownership conversions.
