It can't really be done generically.  Firstly, the attachments look like
two separate hosts, the mid layer won't even know if they're related,
and secondly, even if we work out they are different functions of the
same PCI device, depending on how the device is implemented, there may
not be this problematic interdependency ... in fact it's more the
exception than the norm.
