I'm worried that would create security problems for VFIO.. At least the driver currently wipes out the VFIO installed translation which sounds like the right thing to do. So, I think my first patch was right, we should label this PLATFORM/PRIVATE/whatever and just leave it as is with some comments explaining this thread. Based on the same rational as my prior email that we should label things correctly and this detach_dev is doing BLOCKING. Jason
