This is unlikely to work right wrt pci hotplug.
Yes. Our hotplug design is based on devices.. This is wrong, it
should be based on bus-level concepts (like PCI slots).
If we want to support a large number of interfaces, we need true
multiport cards.
This magic here creates a multiport virtio-net card so I'm not really
sure what you're suggesting. It would certainly be nice to make this
all more user friendly (and make hotplug work).
The big issue is to fix hotplug.
I don't see how we can make it user friendly, without making the
ordinary case even more unfriendly. Looks like we need yet another
level of indirection here.
