Either works, I think.  "thru" and "passthru" are short informal versions of
"through" and "passthrough", but both the long and short versions of both
words are used all over the QEMU source.  "passthrou" is clearly wrong.  If
the longer version is preferred in this case please feel free to fix up when
you apply.
