Re: [PATCH 2.6.23] ibmebus: Prevent bus_id collisions

There are currently two GX devices, eHCA and eHEA, which both reside beneath the root node - this is required by architecture for those devices. Unless they invent a device called "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious", devices in the root note will have a full_name of less than 31 chars. Even in that case, the truncation occurs at the beginning, so the @xxx part that makes the nodes unique will stay in place.


OK, didn't realize it had to be beneath the root node, and that the truncation truncated the front and not the back. I would have done it differently, but this should work.
