Hi All,

Hare are changes in the patch:

 pci_hotplug_core.c -- add  "phy_location" attribute for each php slot.
 rpaphp driver -- intialize "phy_location" with "ibm,loc-code" string.

                           remove some routines that won't be needed
due to naming
                           scheme change.
                           rewrite find_slot routine.


Comments welcome.


Linda
