I actually added the test cases as a separate patch in this series, but
then squashed them into the earlier patch that constructs a qemu
commandline with vfio support before pushing

I pushed the above 4 patches, but didn't push the ones below

Eric questioned whether 3/8 was doing the right thing, and I'd like to
get danpb's opinion.

Eric pointed out several problems with 6/8, which I've addressed, and
7/8 and 8/8 depend on 6/8 so I can't push them yet.

To make things easier, I'm going to close out this thread and repost a
new thread with just these 4 remaining patches. If they are ACKed and DV
wants to freeze before I wake up, please feel free to push them.

Thanks for all the quick reviews!
