This patch breaks VFIO with Intel E1000E on my p5ioc2 machine (vpl2) - the
guest tries allocating MSI ibm,change_msi and pauses for a while (>
10minutes), then continues but the ethernet adapter does not work anyway.
Disabling MSI in QEMU does not help though. I'll debug on Monday but quick
ideas are welcome.

Host kernel config huge pages bits:
# CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE is not set
CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE=y

Huge pages are not enabled in QEMU.
