This is true. Once ECB is enabled, you must have either a SHM bit on
for emulated device support or SHM bits off + a GISA designation
registered for interpretation. Otherwise, PCI instructions will fail.

Once the ECB is enabled for a guest, emulated device FHs must have a SHM
bit in order to continue working properly (so do passthrough devices
that don't setup interpretation). This was not a requirement before
this series -- simply having the ECB bit off would ensure intercepts for
all devices regardless of SHM bit settings, so by doing an opt-in once
the guest indicates it will be doing interpretation we can preserve
backwards-compatibility with an initial mode where SHM bits are not
necessarily required. However once userspace indicates it understands
interpretation, we can assume it is will also use SHM bits properly.

I'm not sure that's necessary -- The idea here was for the userspace to
indicate 1) that it knows how to setup for interpreted devices and 2)
that it has a guest that wants to use at least 1 interpreted device.
Once we know that userspace understands how to manage interpreted
devices (implied by its use of these new vfio feature ioctls) I think it
should be OK to leave these bits on and expect userspace to always do
the appropriate steps (SHM bits for emulated devices / forced intercept
passthrough devices, GISA designation for interpreted devices).
