The address of passed PCI devices (domain:bus:slot:func) might be

trace the address mapping so that we can emulate EEH RTAS requests
from guest. The patch introduces additional fields to eeh_pe and
eeh_dev for the purpose.

Also, the patch adds function eeh_vfio_pe_get() and eeh_vfio_dev_get()
to search EEH PE or device according to the given guest address. Both
of them will be used by subsequent patches.

I don't see the point of VFIO knowing about guest addresses. They are not unique across a system and the whole idea that a VFIO device has to be owned by a guest is also pretty dubious.

I suppose what you really care about here is just a token for a specific device? But why do you need one where we don't have tokens yet?
