IIUC, the upshot of this is basically not to permit firmware updates
of the V100 from within a guest, yes?  However, it would still be
possible to update the firmware from a userspace vfio program?

Given that, I'm not sure this really gives us anything over the
existing signature verifications.  Alex, any thoughts?
