Thanks for the reminder. This is in patchwork, so it's on my to-do
list.

My last response in the thread above was:

I'm not going to merge this without a comment in
pnv_pci_vf_resource_shift() that addresses the two questions I
raised in my very first response. I don't think the existing
comment about "After doing so, there would be a 'hole'" is
sufficient. If it were sufficient, I wouldn't have raised the
questions in the first place.

The problem here is that I'm looking for a comment *in the code*, and
you and Gavin are giving responses and clarifications in email.

What we need to do is transfer this email information into something
useful when reading the code, i.e., a comment in the code.
