Ok - I'll see what I can come up with.

The oem requirement we have explicitly states not to use the unbind interface

The issue is what happens on the link while we are bound for that short
amount of time. It confuses the things on the other side of the link.
There's a secondary driver that ends up binding to the adapters we exclude,
and the things on the other side only expected to see the second driver.
OK, so it sounds like a proposed extension to the generic unbind
interfaces where you specify a no_bind list on the kernel or module
command line.
Also (as Randy pointed out) you don't account for the domain. However,
you could just by not bothering to convert the string to numbers for the
compare, just compare on dev->bus_id ... which is how a generic one
would work.
