Right.  qemu (non-stubdom, which is the relevant case) knows its own
domid and that is the relevant one - because qemu is providing a
parallel path to the pv frontend/backend arrangements, the relevant
backend it is supposed to be the one that qemu is running in.

If it isn't then there is something wrong, so it should check it.

Ian.
