If I recall correctly, PBL will write to the register at the end of the 
BHI process, even in the success case.  So, you have a race condition 
where you need to update the register after BHI is complete, but before 
SBL reads it.

If the value is just based on the BDF, I don't see why the device 
couldn't compute it without input from the host.  This whole mechanism 
seems pretty poorly designed, but sadly I don't have any brilliant ideas 
on how to fix it for you.
