I think so as well. But to be honest I'm unclear on what "QEMU and
KVM only", as used extensively throughout the document, is intended
to mean. Does it mean "only when using the QEMU driver and its KVM
domain type", or rather "only when using the QEMU or KVM domain
type"? The latter sounds more likely to me, and it would be accurate
for the pvpanic-pci device.
