Yes, that would be much better if it was one package.

But this is starting to grow and we have so many threads that need to
progress blocked on this cdev enablement :(

Could we go forward with the cdev main patches and kconfig it to
experimental or something while the rest of the parts are completed
and tested through qemu? ie move the vfio-pci reset enablment to after
the cdev patches?
