Can you please provide an example of how it would look like?
<serial type='pty'>
<target type='xxx-serial>
<model name='splc'/>
</target>
</serial>

There is no real bus for sclp/sclplm -- there is only an internal "bus"
in QEMU, but it should not be exposed in upper layers (as it is only an
implementation detail).
There's probably some name, in some spec, somewhere :)
Or we could use 's390-serial', but that would be suboptimal.
