Hi,

This patch series is a combination of series done by
Wolfgang Mauerer to support proper SCSI drive hotplug
and new work by myself to introduce generic addressing
for all devices.
Wolfgang's most recent posting was

When testing that series I came across a few minor issues,
but more importantly it made me realize how important it is
that we introduce explicit device addressing in our XML format.
(...)
essentially, this all looks good to me - thanks for the extensions.
Unfortunately, I was not yet successful in fully testing the code
because I have some issues with the underlying qemu that prevent my
machines from booting correctly with recent qemu-kvms. However, I came
across a small issue: When certain PCI devices are not present in the
system, libvirt can crash at startup. The attached patch fixes this.
Best, Wolfgang
