There was a bit of discussion about this on #qemu IRC the other
day, coincidentally. I think the conclusion we (upstream QEMU)
came to was that we'd be happy with a "delete all of bsd-user
and reinstate" approach, assuming that the "reinstate" part is
in reasonably logical chunks and not one big "here's what we
have all in one lump" patch.

AIUI from IRC this is being primarily driven by FreeBSD and
NetBSD/OpenBSD support is merely "we hope it is not broken
by the delete-and-reinstate but it was probably broken anyway" ?
