[vfio-users] Checking for EFI and general questions

[Eddie Yen]

I'm already test about this.

I got V4800, which is not support UEFI, I can boot Windows 10 even primary
or secondary card.
Only a problem is, you need to install driver as secondary card mode if you
want to use as primary card.
Also, you can't see any screen until boot into OS with driver loaded. Even
OVMF boot screen.
