After a small fix (attached), I've executed:

$ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -device virtio-serial-pci
vectors = 2

$ x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -device virtio-serial-pci -M pc-0.14
vectors = 32

Is this test is enough?

     Gal.

Subject: [PATCH] Set virtio-serial device to have a default of 2 MSI vectors.

The virtio-serial device is expected to use 2 MSI vectors, one for
control queue and a second shared for all queues.

You'll want to test 1.4 I guess?
