It's different between controller and device. And we only hot unplug pci
controller, not for
all controller types. In addition, we only could do hot-unplug one time,
either zpci device
or corresponding pci device. It's due to Qemu logic. Qemu will
hot-unplug zpci device
automatically while doing hotplug pci device, and vice versa.
Ouch, that's kinda nasty... And I wonder why that doesn't work for
controllers too? They're not *that* special :)

We have to add zpci device firstly and add corresponding pci device
secondly.
Do you think it's redundant to call monitor twice to add two devices?
Again, I'm not familiar at all with this code, but entering (and
exiting) the monitor once for each device you're dealing with seems
to be a pattern.
