Hm, that shouldn't be true. PRI and PASID support are orthogonal.

If we get a PRI request without PASID, we should currently report it as
non-serviced which is the right thing to do. We can hook this up to KVM
etc. to actually allow paging of guests with devices attached, *if* the
devices attached to those guests support PRI.

Nothing fundamentally stops us using PRI without PASID support.
