Re: [PATCH 2.6.23] ibmebus: Prevent bus_id collisions

The plaintiff makes a valid point. How about a staging approach: We 

put

the patch as it is now into 2.6.23 so the problem is fixed, and I'll 

post

a "nice" version with autoloading support and a generic of_make_bus_id

function for 2.6.24. Agree?

Ok, sounds fair. Can you make sure that the resulting bus_id is the same
for the final version then?

No, it would change once more -- the current, minimal-invasive, variant of 
the fix uses the full_name -> "ehca@12345678", while of_make_bus_id uses 
another format: "12345678.ehca". I don't think this makes much of a 
difference, though, and users shouldn't rely on the bus_id having a 
certain format anyway, so IMHO we can live with this.
