This breaks old -> new migration.  Please see docs/migration.txt on
VMSTATE and versions.  It might also be useful to use git-blame(1) on
some existing devices to see how people have modified the VMSTATE
without breaking migration (this is something I don't know much about).

I think you'll want to use subsections anyway because they also fix the
new -> old case as good as they can: If the common case works correctly,
you can use a subsection to send the new state only in the special case.
