[RFC,18/18] vfio-pci: Assume device working after liveupdate

Commit Message

Gowans, James Feb. 5, 2024, 12:02 p.m. UTC

When re-creating a VFIO device after liveupdate no desctructive actions
should be taken on it to avoid interrupting any ongoing DMA.
Specifically bus mastering should not be cleared and the device should
not be reset. Assume that reset works properly and skip over bus
mastering reset.

Ideally this would only be done for persistent devices but in this rough
RFC there currently is no mechanism at this point to easily tell if a
device is persisted or not.
