Ok so I have a basic question about partially_hotplugged flag in the
device struct (there were no comments added in a99c4da9fc2a39847
explaining it). It seems we return early from pcie_unplug_device() when
this flag is set from failover_unplug_primary() in virtio-net. What is the
purpose of this flag? It seems we are not doing a full unplug of the
primary device?
