Indeed finer control over cpuid is needed. We need
to support at least three modes:
- default: expose some machine that is likely to be widely supported
- host: expose as much of the host cpu as we can

we really know what the One True Usage model is for VF

some ideas. I bet there's other people who have other ideas too.
I'd love to hear those ideas.
First there's the question of how to represent the VF on the host
commit b41d6cf38e27 (PCI: Check dynids driver_data value for validity)
requires all drivers to include an id table to try and match
driver_data. Before validating driver_data check driver has an id
table.

When doing device assignment with KVM there's currently nothing to

As a side note, I am curious what PCI driver we do have which has
driver-probe defined but no driver-id_table. Did you hit an actual
issue or are you fixing a theoretical one?
Such a driver was patch 2/2.
