I do not think the engine should go to this level.
ie- it can ask for passthrough as a feature, and the
actual implementation is handled by vdsm.
If vdsm decides over host-passthrough or host-model, then how will the engine user know
what exactly his VM gets. I think vdsm must be told exactly what to do.
