Oh, right -- I see you did add this here. In which case I think you
don't need the extra xl parameter you added in patch 12/19, right? As
I said, that's how we're handling permissive, msi_translate, and the
other per-device flags.

Won't this mean that even with a domain default policy of "relaxed",
that individual pci devices will still default to "strict"?
It looks to me like your global policy isn't so much "default to
relaxed unless specified strict" vs "default to strict unless
specified to relaxed", but is effectively "allow to be relaxed if
specified" vs "force to be strict no matter what the per-device config
says". That's much less expected, and I think less useful.
