  - PCI: Allow per function PCI slots to fix slot reset on s390 On s390 systems, which use a machine level
    hypervisor, PCI devices are always accessed through a form of PCI pass-through which fundamentally
    operates on a per PCI function granularity. This is also reflected in the s390 PCI hotplug driver which
    creates hotplug slots for individual PCI functions. Its reset_slot() function, which is a wrapper for
    zpci_hot_reset_device(), thus also resets individual functions. Currently, the pci_create_slot() assigns
    the same pci_slot object to multifunction devices. This approach worked fine on s390 systems that only
    exposed virtual functions as individual PCI domains to the operating system. Since commit 44510d6fa0c0
    (s390/pci: Handling multifunctions) s390 supports exposing the topology of multifunction PCI devices by
    grouping them in a shared PCI domain. This creates a problem when resetting a function through the hotplug
    driver's slot_reset() interface. When attempting to reset a function through the hotplug driver, the
    shared slot assignment causes the wrong function to be reset instead of the intended one. It also leaks
    memory as we do create a pci_slot object for the function, but don't correctly free it in
    pci_slot_release(). Add a flag for struct pci_slot to allow per function PCI slots for functions managed
    through a hypervisor, which exposes individual PCI functions while retaining the topology. Since we can
    use all 8 bits for slot 'number' (for ARI devices), change slot 'number' u16 to account for special values
    PCI_SLOT_PLACEHOLDER and PCI_SLOT_ALL_DEVICES. (CVE-2026-89795)
