Well, it is not a great interface, and it is only really used in normal cases by vfio. I don't think it is a good idea to design new subsystems with that idea in mind, particularly since detatching the vdpa driver would not trigger destruction of the underlying dynamic resource (ie the SF). We need a way to trigger that destruction.. Jason
