  ---Problem Description---
  Working with Chad (IO team) we were able to inject an EEH recoverable error to the broadcom network adapter (PE #2) behind the PLX switch. Looks like OPAL calls out the Backplane PLX ( Planar ) instead of the adapter slot.

  We want to primarily focus on why the adapter slot ( behind PLX )
  didn't get called out using this defect.

  Problem:

  It seems you're disabling memory BAR and then issue MMIO load, which results
  in "unsupported request" returned from the adapter. In response to that, the
  PE#2 as shown in the kernel log is put to frozen state. Nothing wrong at this
  point. I think the only question would be: the location code isn't making sense.

  I have built the Ubuntu kernel with patch and created  *.deb files.

  Please find the same in the following path for installing and testing
  your test case

  The patched kernel is working great for both firestone and Habanero.
  It resolves the issue and all slot numbers are called out properly.
