AFAIU this will let the user do the assign, which will however only take
effect if the same mdev is re-used with a freshly constructed VM, or?

This is however supposed to change real soon (in patch 11). From the
perspective of bisectability we would end up with a single commit that
acts funny.

How about switching up patches 10 and 11. This way the changes you have
in the current 11 would remain dormant until the changes in the current
10 enable the complete new feature (hotplug)?
