The other thing I am looking at is trying to find a good way to do

place we can leave the VF in the guest until the very last moments
instead of having to remove it before we start the live migration.

I actually think your old RFC would be a good starting point:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/1/5/104

What is missing is I think enabling/disabling dynamically.

Seems to be easier than tracking by the hypervisor.
