yes that's correct. This comment will be removed.

OK thanks for the pointer.

we need to revisit the vfio_pci_hot_reset() implementation in hw/vfio/pci.c
It uses VFIO_DEVICE_GET_PCI_HOT_RESET_INFO and VFIO_DEVICE_PCI_HOT_RESET
uapis
which retrieves/passes the list of iommu groups involved in the reset.
The notion of group had initially disappeared from the the iommufd BE
but I am afraid that's not that simple.

Thanks
