Bug detailed description:
--------------------------
Guest cannot boot with 8 VFs or more VFs, but guest can boot with 7 VFs.
If you assign hot-plug VFs, after you assigning the 8th VF, you may get the
following message in host.
"kvm_alloc_slot: no free slot available".
And the guest aborts.
Reproduce steps:
----------------
1.try to create a guest with 8 VFs:(the guest cannot boot)
qemu-system-x86_64 -smp 2 -m 1024 -net none -hda /root/rhel6.1-beta1.img
-device pci-assign,host=04:10.0 -device pci-assign,host=04:10.1 -device

pci-assign,host=04:10.4 -device pci-assign,host=04:10.5 -device
pci-assign,host=04:10.6 -device pci-assign,host=04:10.7
2.If you want to assign 8 hot-plug VFs, you may use following command in qemu
monitor after you start a guest.
"device_add pci-assign,host=00:19.0,id=my_nic"
