What are the plans for listing?

The manual compose is nice but pretty hairy to use in practice I would think.

Passing the event and extracting the values in here would be neater IMHO.

Can just hook del directly no?

Ditto.

I don't understand why you need this?

You must also check the reserved regions of config and config1.

I think you should also check sample_type.

Have you thought about inherit, pinned, exclusive?

OK, but is having them all on cpu zero a good idea?

Nice to have them align vertically.

If only it was that simple :)

You'll see FW_FEATURE_LPAR in a KVM guest too.

There are at least two mechanisms for FW to indicate the presence of features,
"ibm,hypertas-functions" and "ibm,architecture-vec-5".

If HGPCI is not exposed in either of those then we'd want to do a probe hcall
here to try and detect it at runtime.

This is not modular code so you're discouraged from using module_init(),
arch_initcall() would probably be fine.

cheers
