Upon re-reading my own append, I realized I had omitted a few words >Everything in LPA is marked in some way (or not marked) as PLPA, MLPA/FLPA. I omitted "or dynamic LPA"
And in case it wasn't clear, when I wrote >During IPL, IOS identifies modules needed to "support the I/O >configuration" based on information in the IODF. Some will go into the >nucleus, some into LPA. I don't know much more than that. I was referring to what device support modules are. I would have guessed, however, that if you had not changed I/O configuration and had things added to LPA via "just add a CDE" then re-ran the health check only at parallel times, you might see no changes. But possibly it's being run at one stage "before" these additions and at another "after". Perhaps that would be a reason to identify to the check a very "forgiving" interpretation of the difference in device support modules (i.e, no exception until a really large change is seen).
