One question inline. I made the error of looking at the spec
and got confused.

There is a bit of spec language about case where there is no PASID
LWR=0xb100 not being a stop marker, SSV == 0 and should be treated as
a PRI request. I'm not sure what that means in practice but maybe
a comment on why that case doesn't matter. Feels like breadcrumbs we
might need in future.
