When Chunyan originally submitted the patch adding PCI passthrough

Yes. It's definitely the right way to do it.
Do you think a lot of the bugs in this code
are specific to the qemu driver? I don't have a feel for the number of
common vs hypervisor-specific bugs.
The bugs that I was thinking of were related to either vfio and/or to
binding/unbinding drivers to the devices, so they would be
hypervisor-agnostic.
