The default action of coalesced MMIO is, cache the writing in buffer, until:
1. The buffer is full.
2. Or the exit to QEmu due to other reasons.

But this would result in a very late writing in some condition.
1. The each time write to MMIO content is small.
2. The writing interval is big.
3. No need for input or accessing other devices frequently.

This issue was observed in a experimental embbed system. The test image
simply print "test" every 1 seconds. The output in QEmu meets expectation,
but the output in KVM is delayed for seconds.

Per Avi's suggestion, I hooked flushing coalesced MMIO buffer in VGA update
handler. By this way, We don't need vcpu explicit exit to QEmu to
handle this issue.

The commit has two issues:

* When it runs from the monitor, e.g. "device_add e1000,?", it prints
  to stderr instead of the monitor.

* Help looks to callers just like failed device creation.  This makes
  main() exit unsuccessfully on "-device e1000,?".

The commit has four issues:

* When it runs from the monitor, e.g. "device_add e1000,mac=?", it
  prints to stderr instead of the monitor.

* Help looks to callers just like failed device creation.  This makes
  main() exit unsuccessfully on "-device e1000,mac=?".

* It has an undocumented side effect on -global: "-global e1000.mac=?"
  prints help, but only when we actually add an e1000 device.

* It does not work for properties that accept the value "?".

We need to do this differently.

Help was shoehorned into device creation, qdev_device_add().  Since
help doesn't create a device, it returns NULL, which looks to callers
just like failed device creation.  Monitor handler do_device_add()
doesn't care, but main() exits unsuccessfully.

Move help out of device creation, into new qdev_device_help().

Return the bitwise inclusive or of all return values instead of the
last call's value.  This lets you find out whether any of the calls
returned a non-zero value.

No functional change, as existing users either don't care for the
value, or pass non-zero abort_on_failure, which breaks the loop on the
first non-zero return value.

When using ballooning to manage overcommitted memory on a host, a system for
guests to communicate their memory usage to the host can provide information
that will minimize the impact of ballooning on the guests.  The current method
employs a daemon running in each guest that communicates memory statistics to a
host daemon at a specified time interval.  The host daemon aggregates this
information and inflates and/or deflates balloons according to the level of
host memory pressure.  This approach is effective but overly complex since a
daemon must be installed inside each guest and coordinated to communicate with
the host.  A simpler approach is to collect memory statistics in the virtio
balloon driver and communicate them directly to the hypervisor.
