As it's quite horrible to take apart the devpath number (like 71000102)
in shell, and it's not entirely clear how that number is built up (i. e.
how many digits are the bus number, and how many are the slot ID), would
it be possible to fix the ibmveth kernel driver to export those two
numbers separately as sysfs attributes? This would provide a much safer
and more efficient matching and naming in userspace.
