If I haven't missed anything, I have not received any comment on this
series despite ping and resend since mid June. Now most of the 2.10 rush
is behind, please can anyone have a look?
The BUG message hits when your assign a PF and performance is largely
decreased whenever INTx are used during passthrough.
Thanks
