I think I'd like to see some sort of breadcrumb when /dev/vfio/vfio is
provided by something other than the vfio container code.  If we intend
to include this before P2P is resolved, that breadcrumb (dmesg I'm
guessing) might also list any known limitations of the compatibility to
save time with debugging.  Thanks,

Alex
