+ Never generate a slot name when a PCI bridge is detected.
+
+ Since version "rhel-9.0", we have generated slot-based names
+ for PCI multifunction devices, because we assumed that it is enough to use function numbers
+ to distinguish between devices. However, name conflict can occur if these devices are not
+ children of the same PCI bridge, e.g. there are multiple PCI bridges in the same slot.
