[vfio-users] Installing Catalyst prevents VM from booting.

[Brett Foster]

Well... that's um... friendly and welcoming piece of feedback.

Surprisingly, I find this technology surprisingly good which is a surprisingly good testimonial. Don't mind read interpretation. It is a testament.

Anyhow, my apologies for offending Kash's sensibilities.

Your anecdotal evidence is meaningless, please, don't encourage others
to use obsolete machine types. Plenty have profiled it and even the
developers tell you that Q35 is the way to go. "Surprisingly stable" is
not a sound endorsement of i440fx. If you couldn't make an AMD GPU work,
that's probably because you didn't create a valid PCIe heirarchy.
