Ok. You choose one of the following two options:

- Remove WARN_ON() in pnv_pci_dma_dev_setup(). Actually, I don't think
  it's quite correct to update PE# to VF's pdn at this function. Instead,
  it would have been done at the SRIOV enablement backend. But it's not
  related to this patchset. You may improve it later.
- Keep the code you had: set the PE# to invalid one, and put some comments
  here as below.

  /*
   * We have to set the VF PE number to invalid one, which is required
   * to plug the VF successfully.
   */

Thanks,
Gavin
