I don't think it's a good idea to mix transactions from
multiple PASIDs on the same vq.

Attaching a PASID to a queue seems more reasonable.
cvq is under guest control, so yes I think a separate
vq is preferable.

What is true is that with subfunctions you would have
PASID per subfunction and then one subfunction for control.

I think a sketch of how things will work with scalable iov can't hurt as
part of this proposal.  And, I'm not sure we should have so much
flexibility: if there's an interface that works for SRIOV and SIOV then
that seems preferable than having distinct transports for SRIOV and
SIOV.
