It's question of whether we are willing to do unthinkable,
i.e. to break QEMU <-> guest ABI for isapc case by removing
corresponding fwcfg entries.
It's not unthinkable since it's unversioned.
we are loosing a chance to cleanup
QEMU code base touching following
m->option_rom_has_mr = true;
m->rom_file_has_mr = false;
pcmc->pci_enabled = false;
pcmc->has_acpi_build = false;
pcmc->smbios_defaults = false;
pcmc->gigabyte_align = false; pcmc->smbios_legacy_mode = true; pcmc->has_reserved_memory = false;
Some of these can go away, for the others probably we can think of making isapc a direct subclass of X86MachineState.
I would rather keep it because it's the only way to test userspace interrupt injection in KVM.

they are all marginal but in shared code, and removing them
makes code a bit more easier to follow (especially when it
comes to memory layout).
