This is not how VENDOR_TYPE is meant to be used. We have a 32-bit type
and 32-bit sub-type. When bit 31 of type is set (ie. VENDOR_TYPE),
then the low 16-bits (VENDOR_MASK) defines a vendor specific set of
sub-types. Using it as above, you're stomping on vendor 0x0000's
vendor sub-types. I would expect non-vendor specific types to leave
bit 31 of the type field clear. We could then define a universal type
for device state with a sub-type specifying the API such that we could
revise the API by providing an updated sub-type. Or perhaps there are
devices that want separate save vs restore regions, we could do that
with the sub-type.

This appears as if it's going to be rather verbose and generate errors
for anything not supporting migration, which is currently everything.
Maybe there should be an OnOffAuto vfio-pci device option for the user
to specify migration such that if migration=on is specified the device
will fail if it's not available. Otherwise the default would be auto.

How is _PROBE different from _REGION_INFO which already exists to tell
us information about the region?

.unmigratable isn't really dynamically settable aiui, thus the
existence of the migration blocker.

This continues on with the 0x8086 vendor sub-types, which is entirely
unnecessary as each vendor has an entire sub-type address space and we
shouldn't be using a vendor type anyway. Additionally, we need
significantly more documentation on the API for this region. Thanks,
