Yes, we already had the dumped PHB diag-data when detecting frozen PE
during PCI probing. After PCI probing is completed, the EEH takes over
and we won't dump PHB diag-data during PCI config cycles.

Took a close look on what we have in the code. Those functions to dump
PHB (P7IOC & PHB3) needs a bit rework or refactoring since we're dumping
same PHB diag-data in pci.c and eeh-ioda.c at the same time.

Besides, I think the appropriate place to dump PHB diag-data (for EEH
core itself) would be ioda_eeh_get_log(), which is the indirect backend
of eeh_ops::get_log, instead of the function ioda_eeh_next_error().

Ben, please drop this one for now and I'll send the revised one :-)

Thanks,
Gavin
