Commit 7426aa72c36c908a7d0eae3e38568bb0a70de479 (nand: Don't inherit
from Sysbus) made NAND a device rather than SysBus device. This led to all
boards using the device (akita, borzoi, spitz, terrier, tosa, axis-dev88)
crashing on "info qtree".

The difference to the bus-less ARMCPU is that the device was still being
created by qdev_create() rather than object_new(), which makes assumptions
about a NULL BusState being the SysBus. Fix that.

A longer-term solution will be to stop using qdev_create().

Should you check instead if dev is-a TYPE_SYSBUS_DEVICE?

Does this also leave the nand device out of info qtree, or is it still 
dumped?

Hmm, that would catch TYPE_SYS_BUS_DEVICE-derived types as well, which
might in theory override bus_type.

The ugly thing here is the cyclic dependency betwen qdev and sysbus,
therefore no TYPE_SYSTEM_BUS.

As I pointed out several times already, devices that are not on a bus
are generally *not* printed by info qtree. It depends on the old qbus
concept. Therefore info qtree is not of much use anymore and should be
dropped in favor of the qom-list and qom-get operations, which get us
all devices and all properties. I had once attached a qom-tree for that
and need to put that into a proper patch. Best before the next question
pops up. :)

BTW this patch became optional due to the one-line nand fix (which also
does not show the device in legacy info qtree), but I am still in favor
of merging this or a variation thereof to avoid future troubles.

2c: Leaving it out would be a good thing. No information is better
than wrong information - NAND devices are not on sysbus.
