device_path.py depends on the following patch, and it is for
linux-2.6.18-xen.hg.
[PATCH 1/4] dom0 linux: Expose HID, UID, SEG, BBN of PCI root bridge
via sysfs.
Please download the source code from linux-2.6.18-xen.hg, and apply
the patch to the code. Then build and install normally, and execute
device_path.py on dom0 linux.

ACPI driver is changed from 2.6.18, and the directory where PCI root
bridge resides is changed.
2.6.18:
/sys/firmware/acpi/namespace/ACPI/_SB
2.6.27:
/sys/bus/acpi/devices
I don't think it is difficult to create the patches for
linux-2.6.27-xen.hg. It is easy to make device_path.py support two
versions of dom0 linux.
