Ok, this means we need the bus concept. I will see if the API for
add/remove can be changed that only devices get passed to the libxl.
Does a multi-LUN device require it's own bus or something?
Or do the LUN numbers need to be passed through to the guest because
things get upset otherwise?
IOW why does multi-LUN imply multi-bus, and even if so why does that
need to be exposed to the user?
These are e.g. RAID-systems or tape libraries. In most cases one LUN
is a control LUN via which the other LUNs can be configured and/or
administrated. This implies that all of those LUNs have to share the
same target and they need to have the same LUN numbers in the guest as
on the real device.
