Yup, that's what I was trying, but couldn't get any output.

That would explain why I'm not seeing any output from it
then, it and the solaris module are the only ones containing
any opal_output() statements in the paffinity section of MCA.

I'll try scattering some opal_output()'s into the linux module
instead along the same lines as the base module.

The PLPA output is not run time selectable:

#if defined(PLPA_DEBUG) && PLPA_DEBUG && 0
