Hi, Alex,

Thanks for the confirmation on vfio-pci part. That would be great if
we can make it work without special care. :)

Do you mean I should put patch 1 to the end of the series? Since
even with patch 2 and 4, IR won't work as well, and guest will hang
at kernel boot. I can move patch 1 to the end of series
though. That will make sure that when people see the parameter, they
can use it as well.
Thanks!
