[PATCH net-next 1/2] PCI: hv: support reporting serial number as slot information

2018-08-29 Thread Stephen Hemminger
The Hyper-V host API for PCI provides a unique "serial number" which can be used as basis for sysfs PCI slot table. This can be useful for cases where userspace wants to find the PCI device based on serial number. When an SR-IOV NIC is added, the host sends an attach message with serial number.
