Hmm, I'm thinking maybe we should reflect the pci_enable_msix() behavior
directly and let the caller decide if they want to make do with fewer
MSI vectors. So the ioctl will return <0: error, 0:success, >0: number
of MSIs we think we can setup, without actually setting them. Sound
good?
BTW, github now has updated trees:
git://github.com/awilliam/linux-vfio.git vfio-next-20111129
git://github.com/awilliam/qemu-vfio.git vfio-ng
Thanks,
