^^^^^^^^
While I appreciate the effort and like the fact that this actually triggers an SPI, I wonder if this actually belongs into kvm-unit-tests.
After all this just test a device purely emulated in (QEMU) userland, so it's not really KVM related.
What is the general opinion on this?
Don't we care about this hair-splitting as long as it helps testing?
Do we even want to extend kvm-unit-tests coverage to more emulated devices, for instance virtio?
Cheers,
Andre.
