Thanks for your effort of reviewing my patch. I think if I need cost 
more time about the QAPI, that's outside my initial idea and deviate 
from supporting the PMU Filter.

So I decide to not update this patch now. And wait until I have time to 
look into the QAPI or the -cpu option has been transformed to QAPI format.

Thanks,
Shaoqin
