The portX symlinks are created by the ehea driver based on its special
knowledge
of ehea. The bus driver does not (and isn't supposed to) have this knowledge,
and hence can't determine the amount and type of ports provided by an lhea.
This
is due to the special nature of ibmebus in that bus devices don't follow a
unified standard for enumerating subdevices like ports.
Note that the bus driver does, in fact, create the device sysfs entry, so it
would be possible to find out that ehea needs to be loaded.
