For context on related efforts: - PCI Live Update is targeting the Live Update tree (maintained by Pasha, Mike, and Pratyush, with David Matlack maintaining the PCI-specific code). https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20260710212616.1351130-2-dmatlack@google.com/ - IOMMU Live Update is planned to go through the IOMMU tree. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iommu/20260614233728.2212104-3-skhawaja@google.com/ Given these different approaches, what is your preference for routing the VFIO Live Update code?
