IIUC, QEMU guarantees a deprecation period for at least two major

users a chance to adapt gracefully.
I think that's not 2 major releases just 2 releases so in your example
could be removed in 9.0. qemu/docs/about/deprecated.rst says:
"The feature will remain functional for the release in which it was
deprecated and one further release. After these two releases, the feature
is liable to be removed."
