FWIW, I don't really have a strong opinion here but I welcome the
discussion. It seems fair to me that a PCI vendor type could be used
for either a device with that vendor ID or by the vendor of the
platform. We've got a lot of address space if want to use
VFIO_REGION_TYPE_IBM_ZDEV rather than a PCI vendor type (so long as
it's updated not to conflict with the GFX type). Thanks,
