However, if ^this generated it because the driver name is not set, how do we even get to the resulting device tree as outlined in 05e6cdafa6e0? +- css_0_0_003a | +- ccw_0_0_1a2b | +- scsi_host0 What kind of CSS device is the one causing the error? If we skip this CSS device, we don't generate a name for it and don't put it in the list, so I'm quite puzzled on what I missed in the IBM document and thus in the review process.
