Comment 8 for bug 1745900

I evaluated the changes here and must postpone them to Ubuntu 19.04
To some extend it is that the changes are actually noisy to backport, but that would appear to be doable.
To some other that the info on the actual changes was made available 1 day after feature freeze and this clearly is a feature to me.
But the biggest reason is that this will make it qemu rely on libpmem which is rather new and not in main.

I must beg your pardon, but we can't shove all of that in right now due to the reasons above.
We plan for >=qemu 3.0 in Ubuntu 19.04 anyway.
Lets use this opportunity to start driving a MIR request for pmdk to be able to do that in the 19.04 cycle.
