As suffixes do not make sense for sPAPR's device tree and there is no way to filter them out on the BusState::get_fw_dev_path level, let's add an ability for the external caller to specify whether to apply suffixes or not. We could handle suffixes in SLOF (ignore for now) but this would require serious rework in the node opening code in SLOF which has no obvious benefit for the currently emulated sPAPR machine.
For the record, the commit message is not entirely correct in presenting the situation. QEMU *does not care in any way* of benefits for the currently emulated sPAPR machine. The benefit would be to QEMU in having simpler code.
You just got a wildcard because Forth is scary. :) Paolo
