Subject: [PATCH] qemu: use "ide" as device name for implicit SATA controller

 on Q35

This resolves https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008903

The Q35 machinetype has an implicit SATA controller at 00:1F.2 which

isn't given the "expected" id of ahci0 by qemu when it's created. The

original suggested solution to this problem was to not specify any

controller for the disks that use the default controller and just

specify "unit=n" instead; qemu should then use the first IDE or SATA

controller for the disk.

Unfortunately, this "solution" is ignorant of the fact that in the

case of SATA disks, the "unit" attribute in the disk XML is actually

*not* being used for the unit, but is instead used to specify the

"bus" number; each SATA controller has 6 buses, and each bus only

allows a single unit. This makes it nonsensical to specify unit='n'

where n is anything other than 0. It also means that the only way to

connect more than a single device to the implicit SATA controller is

to explicitly give the bus names, which happen to be "ide.$n", where

$n can be replaced by the disk's "unit" number.

(cherry picked from commit 30bb4c4b54ed3a23adc90c52540dd96b0cbcfbcc)
