In what cases today so we have multiple PPAs per port? (The VLAN hack is
a PPA overload and not a real PPA.)
Sorry, I should have said "per devinfo". The cases that this comes up
in are cases where the chip vendor puts multiple ethernet ports on a
single PCI function. Marvell Yukon 2 chips can do this, and so can
devices from Mellanox. I'm faced with this problem with a very real
device that has this concern.
