It's your class, so it's not too bad to touch it from that point of
view; on the other hand it's ugly to do it here nevertheless. :)

I think you should always set "sbc->connect_irq_notifier =
vfio_start_irqfd_injection" in the class_init function.  The
vfio_start_irqfd_injection function can just exit if it finds
"!kvm_enabled() || !kvm_irqfds_enabled() || !kvm_resamplefds_enabled()
|| !vdev->irqfd_allowed".
