I was able to develop a patch that causes the Intel IGD to grab slot 2 with these versions of qemu when qemu is running with xen as the accelerator and when using the xenlight (xl/libxl) toolstack to build the Xen HVM. The patch is designed to only affect Xen HVMs with IGD passthrough, that is, when using the xenlight toolstack and setting gfx_passthru to '1' or 'igd' in the Xen HVM DomU's xl.cfg file.
Please address this upstream. If the problem is real, I think this way everyone will benefit from this. I don't think patching this in Debian is a good idea, at least I want debian version to be as close to upstream as possible. Also, personally I myself is not an expert in this area, and patches like this definitely needs quite some attentition/expertise from someone who is familiar with this topic. Thanks! /mjt
