Subject: [PATCH] qom: don't require user creatable objects to be registered
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

When an object is in turn owned by another user object, it is not
desirable to expose this in the QOM object hierarchy. It is just an
internal implementation detail, we should be free to change without
exposure to apps managing QEMU.
