Btw are there other methods of disabling VT-d PCI passhtru than having iommu=off for xen.gz in grub.conf? 
ie. can you somehow select "use normal PV passthru for this guest" and "but still use VT-d passthru for this guest" ?

ps. I'm just writing a xen wiki page for PCI passthru and adding these things and the common failure scenarios there.
