Well, all these effects are unusual for I/O commands, and all the
effects really are hints to the host.  But if you think we can do
better, can you send an incremental fixup?  We'll need to get
these fixes in ASAP to fix the gapping security hole, or just
revert the unprivileged passthrough for 6.2.
