I am sorry, but I do not understand this sentance. What is so
complicated about individual devices being created? Where are they
created? What bus?
Use auxiliary bus

Why can't you just have individual platform devices for the individual
devices your hypervisor exposes?
You control the platform devices, why force them to be shared like this?
