[Xen-devel] [PATCH] libxl_dm: Replace deprecated -drive if=scsi

[Anthony PERARD <anthony.perard@xxxxxxxxxx>]

.. by -drive if=none,.. -device scsi-disk,...

The use of if=scsi in QEMU is deprecated and has been removed in 2.12 by
1454509726 scsi: Remove automatic creation of SCSI controllers with -drive 
if=scsi

It used to create a SCSI controller, now we have to explicitly create
it in libxl. This is done ahead of disks creation in order to try to
keep the controller on the PCI slot as it used to be.

The chosen "id" for drive is the same that QEMU used to create.

This patch also take the opportunity to remove the comments in
qemu_disk_scsi_drive_string() which had a typo and is now out of date.

FYI, I did not test the changes with COLO.

This patch should fix testing of the branch qemu-mainline in osstest.
The *-nested-* tests fails. For some reason, they are using "sdX" disks
instead of the usual "hdX".
