Not only is migration an issue, but so is hotplug.  Anything that
aligns the VM configuration to the host is going to have migration
issues and anything that does so conditionally based on the current set
of attached devices will have hotplug issues.

It'd be more prudent to find the least common denominator under
/sys/class/iommu/dmar*/intel-iommu/cap regardless of attached devices,
but it still affects migration compatibility between hosts.

Also note that vfio-pci can specify the device with either host= or
sysfsdev= and with vfio cdev support and iommufd the file descriptor
for the vfio device might be passed via SCM rights, so we may not have
a reference to it in sysfs.  The above appears to only work with the
host= device specification.  Thanks,

Alex
