So, is facility 12 a pre-req for PQAP(QCI)? Can the code work if
matrix_dev.info is not populated?
Yes and yes. It's basically only used in vfio_ap_matrix_init() and it
has fallbacks.
Ok. So facility 12 is required but not sufficient for PQAP(QCI) to be
available? (Just asking as I cannot check the doc; if it works with
fallbacks I'm fine.)
AFAIR it should be sufficient in our case. My guess is that the non 0
return code stands for program exceptions that are not related to the
availability of QCI.
