I've tried this with PFs on Solarflare adapters.

This is how the PF looks in the KVM host:

This is how it looks in the guest:

The capability list is significantly changed.  The hex dump seems to
show that config space beyond about offset 0x60 is still passed through
unchanged, but I wouldn't want to rely on that remaining true.
