commit cc943c36faa192cd4b32af8fe5edb31894017d35 pci: Use bus master address space for delivering MSI/MSI-X messages breaks virtio-net for rhel6.[56] x86 guests because they don't enable bus mastering for virtio PCI devices. For the same reason, rhel6.[56] ppc64 guests cannot boot on a virtio-blk disk anymore. Old guests forgot to enable bus mastering, enable it automatically on DRIVER (guests use some devices before DRIVER_OK).
