Comments from QEMU PCI folks?

The above PCI function could also be done inline here pretty easily too:
unsigned int nr, max_vec = 0;
if (!msix_masked(&vdev->pdev))
for (nr = 0; nr < msix_nr_vectors_allocated(&vdev->pdev); nr++) {
if (!msix_is_masked(&vdev->pdev, nr)) {
max_vec = nr;
}
}
}
It's a bit cleaner than the msix utility function, imo.

It just happens that migration triggers this usage model where the
MSI-X enable bit is set with vectors unmasked in the vector table, but
this is not unique to migration, guests can follow this pattern as well.
Has this been tested with a variety of guests? Logically it seems
correct, but always good to prove so. Thanks,
