Can you please include the various sysfs paths that are generated by
all of this for irdma in some commit message?

I'm particularly interested to see how all the parentage turned out
for the virtual device.

Is PM going to work? IIRC PM will require that the virtual bus device
goes through PM states in the right order relative to the PCI
device. This all turned out OK?

The concept certainly seems like what I imagined

I'm not totally sold on 'virtual bus' as a name for this 'multi
function pci device' thing, but you can work that out with Greg :)

Thanks,
Jason
