Jan also noticed this, and we have a ticket for it in gitlab:

> What is the right way to fix it?

I think the right fix is to simply avoid hidden devices from being
handled by vPCI, in any case such devices won't work propewrly with
vPCI because they are in use by Xen, and so any cached information by
vPCI is likely to become stable as Xen can modify the device without
vPCI noticing.

I think the chunk below should help.  It's not clear to me however how
hidden devices should be handled, is the intention to completely hide
such devices from dom0?
