I am not sure if this is true in general, but in this device (SR-IOV
VF) I am testing it will return 0 windows if the default DMA window is
not deleted, and 1 after it's deleted.

I copied everything from the LoPAR, and IIRC the ACR for this change
only described this change in the document.

That would make sense, and be great.
I will dig some more.

Thank you!
