Interesting; I did consider that... Is this how IBM says you should do it? (PS. Do you really run 5 virtual CPUs in all of your Linux guests?)

I can't find any directory statement that seems to do this for you. And from this: http://linuxvm.org/present/SHARE111/S9122bb.pdf On page 17, it says: First step, make virtual machines on IFL LPAR have virtual IFLs But how?
