PowerVM seems to only ever provide a single hotplug slot per PHB.
The under lying slot hotplug registration code assumed multiple slots,
but the actual implementation is broken for multiple slots. This went
unnoticed for years due to the nature of PowerVM as mentioned
previously. Under qemu/kvm the hotplug slot model aligns more with
x86 where multiple slots are presented under a single PHB. As seen
in the following each additional slot after the first fails to
register due to each slot always being compared against the first
child node of the PHB in the device tree.
