Subject: RE: [PATCH v2 3/4] PCI: hv: Change pci_protocol_version to per-hbus

> A VM can have multiple Hyper-V hbus. It's incorrect to set the global

> hv_pci_protocol_negotiation(). This is not an issue in practice since
> every hbus should have the same value of hbus->protocol_version, but
> we should make the variable per-hbus, so in case we have busses
> with different protocol_versions, the driver can still work correctly.
