We haven't opened the h/w specification, but we've been pretty open with
what it provides, how the code works, and our intended use case. The
device provides additional pci domains for people who need more than
the 256 busses a single domain provides.

What information may I provide to satisfy your use case concerns? Are
you wanting to know what devices we have in mind that require additional
domains?
