[Xen-devel] [rfc 0/2] xend, hvmloader: Allow any unused PCI device to be used for pass-through



The current limit of 2 pass-through devices seems to be rather small.
These patches remove that limit and allow any unused PCI device to
be used for pass-through, including hotplug.

It seems that the first few (4) devices will be used for other purposes by
HVM domains. However, it seems to me to be clean to make this code generic
and cope with any device on the bus - saving the need for subsequent
changes if the number of devices HVM domains use by default ever changes.

There are also qemu-dm patches required for this change.
I will submit them separately.
