Sure, I'll keep that in mind, and sorry for rushing to push this. 

However, this actually points to a bigger problem: Given that the
mesa/virgl driver is completely separate from the host virglrenderer,
how do we ensure in a real world application that host and guest agree
on the abi? There is this 'version' in the
vrend_renderer_fill_caps_common and the 'max_version' in the caps, but
the first one is not used at all, and the second is not used beyond
signalling the availability of caps set 2. Maybe we should define some
algorithm to bump that latter number so the client can see what values
in the caps were actually filled by the host? 

Best,
Gert
