Good point! Yes this is probably not correct if Jailhouse doesn't also
guarantee ARI. I guess if we really want the generic solution, and I'm
fine with an s390 specific one too, then we would need to add some
indication that the invisible bridges support ARI. Honestly I'm not
even entirely sure if the bridge is even NULL on jailhouse too. In
QEMU/KVM for example I think everyone besides s390 emulates bridges.
