Yes, but at boot time this doesn't result in redundant entries.
Consider a PHB with slots at functions 0, 3, and 7, and consider that 0
isn't owned by you at boot. So 3 and 7 get picked up at boot by
pci_scan_slot(). Now when you dlpar add 0, you don't want 3 and 7 to be
added again. That's my fundamental problem.
Will have that bkbits patch right out :)
Thanks-
