This is unlikely. To my knowledge, you'd better not bind the exported
device in the domO. Even the respective kernel module should be told
to not bind that device, or blacklisted at all.

I assume the device is not completely exported. dom0 is told via
grub line to pciback.hide the 00:1d.0 but not 00:1d.1.
This is exactly what the xm create says.

I think it's not possible to route partial devices (e.g. one of
four usb hubs served by the same chip)

Greetings

Stephan
