The hack is to run a modified qemu-aware "/usr/sbin/rtas_errd" in the
guest which receives an event from qemu (RAS_EPOW from
/proc/interrupts), fetches device tree chunks (and as I understand it -
they come with BARs from phyp but without from qemu) and writes "1" to
"/sys/bus/pci/rescan" which calls pci_assign_resource() eventually:
