What class does your ISA bridge device have?

#define PCI_CLASS_BRIDGE_ISA             0x0601



Also I don't like the idea of tying Tiejun's patch series, that covers a
very narrow use case, to something as important and general purpose as
upgrading chipset.

If it's true that implementing igd passthrough on top of q35 is much
cleaner architecturally, then I don't see why we should merge a stop-gap
solution that we'll need to then support indefinitely.

We are talking about upstreaming functionality that xen already has, right?
So there's no time to market concern, whoever wants a solution today
has it.  Why not do it in the cleanest possible way?
