So this patch added a no_its flag which gets set for virt-2.7 and earlier, but there's no user-facing way to say "I'd like a virt-2.8 board with no ITS", right? That's a bit unfortunate because the ITS can't be migrated, which means there's no way to ask for a post-2.7 virt board which can be migrated... thanks -- PMM
