The loadparm is required on s390x to pass the information to the boot loader
such as which kernel should be started or whether the boot menu should be shown.

Because PCI devices do not naturally allocate space for this, the property is
added on an architecture specific basis.

Adding this unconditionally to each and every PCI device is a little bit ugly ... could we please limit this to virtio-blk-pci devices for now? (or maybe check if there is a bootindex property, and only add it for devices with a bootindex property?)
