Re: 2, try it and see.  When developing vfio I tested with an emulated
powerpc machine as it was one of the few archs other than x86 systems
that seemed to have functional PCI in QEMU, it worked.  I'm not sure
what might have broken since then, it's been a long time since I've run
that test case, but worth a shot.  Thanks,

Alex
