I'm largely okay, so
Acked-by: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx>

Still my wariness remains towards the multi-function bit (it being set is
at least misleading when the device then has no further functions), and I
also remain not fully convinced by the earlier reply towards phantom
functions. While those indeed don't have any config space, is their setting
up in the IOMMU tables actually handled correctly for this virtual SBDF
case? It may well be (as the virtual coordinates _should_ indeed not matter
at all), but that's not entirely obvious.
