I think adding blacklist now is better, because it is easy to specify
an unsuitable device when it is found. But I don't know what other
developers think about this.
BTW, I found a issue when I read your code.
MSI-INTx translation is enabled when guest domain is started.
When guest OS enables MSI/MSI-X, MSI-INTx translation is disabled.
But when guest OS disables MSI/MSI-X, MSI-INTx translation isn't re-enabled.
This means normal INTx interrupt is used.
I think the results should be the same at all times,
so it is good to re-enable MSI-INTx translation.
Thanks,
