I'd say we have about 3 weeks to get things in.

This isn't needed; we currently don't assign the device to the guest if we 
find that a driver is already loaded. I intend to change it to failing guest 
start altogether in case we find a module already using a device. When a 
guest exits, we release all the structures and hence even unloading kvm is 
not needed to reclaim the device on the host side.
