"partitions"? What's that supposed to be? SR-IOV?

Hmm, isn't this stuff the same as exported by the kernel as the
"index" field, i.e. SMBIOS Type 41? Can you elaborate on the relation
of that field and the stuff this patch adds?

I didn't look too closely in the actual sources, but I did notice that
it is line-broken, and doesn't follow CODING_STYLE in quite a few
cases, regarding placement of brackets, or error handling for
example. 

In order to avoid any confusion with line-broken patches, and to make
review easier, please submit the patch as github PR, which is the way
we generally prefer receiving patches these days!

Thanks,

Lennart
