"but force set the type" doesn't scan very well. "... forcing the type

Fine to me as well.
I understand what you mean but that table just includes IGDs existed on
BDW and HSW. Because in the case of qemu upstream we're just covering
these platforms, and with our discussion we don't have any plan to add
those legacy platforms in the future. But qemu-xen-traditional still
covers those platforms. So I'm afraid its not good to check this with
that table as well.
Hrm, OK. I suppose we can live with autodetect and igd both meaning igd
and whoever adds a new type will have to remember to add a check for
qemu-trad then.
When we really have to introduce a new type, this means we probably need
to change something inside qemu codes. So a new type should just go into
that table to support qemu upstream since now we shouldn't refactor
anything in qemu-xen-traditional, right?
Thanks
