PCI passthrough is already supported for HVM domUs when dom0 is PVH
on x86. The last related patch on Qemu side was merged after Xen4.20
release. So mention this feature in Xen4.21 entry.

Aren't we still in need of SR-IOV support in order to make such an
unconditional statement?

I view SR-IOV as kind of orthogonal to this: SR-IOV is not
supported at all on PVH dom0, so it's not just pass through, but the
capability itself that won't work as expected when using such devices.

Hmm, yes and no. No in so far as I as someone who simply wants to use Xen
would read the above statement as indicating full pass-through support.
Which first and foremost includes the passing through of VFs.

Maybe we can clarify somehow that SR-IOV devices are still not
supported on a PVH dom0:
- Support PCI passthrough for HVM domUs when dom0 is PVH (note
SR-IOV capability usage is not yet supported on PVH dom0).
In any case we should likely wait for:
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/20250308001711.18746-1-jason.andryuk@amd.com/
To be committed?
Thanks, Roger.

I'd prefer if we made this explicit, yes.
