My main point is that the vdpa parent driver should not be able to
tell the difference between vhost_vdpa and virtio_vdpa. The only
difference I can think of is because of the vhost IOTLB handling.
Do you also observe this behavior if you add the device with "vdpa
add" without the virtio_vdpa module loaded, and then modprobe
virtio_vdpa?
At least the comment should be something in the line of "If we have
all the information to initialize the device, pre-warm it here" or
similar.
