On s390 PCI Virtual Functions (VFs) are scanned by firmware and are made available to Linux via the hot-plug interface. As such the common code path of doing the scan directly using the parent Physical Function (PF) is not used and fenced off with the no_vf_scan attribute. Even if the partition created the VFs itself e.g. using the sriov_numvfs attribute of a PF, the PF/VF links thus need to be established after the fact. To do this when a VF is plugged we scan through all functions on the same zbus and test whether they are the parent PF in which case we establish the necessary links. With these links established there is now no more need to fence off pci_iov_remove_virtfn() for pdev->no_vf_scan as the common code now works fine.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
