Then we'll have a single solution for both netvsc and virtio (and any other PV device). And we could handle the VF DMA dirt issue agnostically.
For the record, I won't block patches adding this kist to virtio on the basis that they must be generic. It's not a lot of code, implementation can come first, prettify later. But we do need to have a discussion about how devices are paired. I am not sure using just MAC works. E.g. some passthrough devices don't give host ability to set the MAC. Are these worth worrying about? -- MST
