[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] vfio: Do not reattempt a failed rom read

[Bandan Das <bsd@redhat.com>]

During lazy rom loading, if rom read fails, and the
guest attempts a read again, vfio_rom_read will again attempt it.
Add a boolean to prevent this. There could be a case where
a failed rom read might succeed the next time because of
a device reset or such, but it's best to exclude unpredictable
behavior
