Just to clarify here...  This condition happens on systems where there is more
than one remote processor.  In those cases we get dupliation in sysfs because
virtio devices on each seperate instances of "rproc" are getting the same
rproc->nb_vdev number.

If that is the case, please add a comment in the code that clearly highlight
this condition.

Thanks,
Mathieu
