This reverts commit1c7d45e7b2. We tried to optimize the number of hcalls we send and skipped sending the REQUEST_MAP calls for some maps. However during resets, we need to resend all the maps to the VIOS since the VIOS does not remember the old values. In fact we may have failed over to a new VIOS which will not have any of the mappings. When we send packets with map ids the VIOS does not know about, it triggers a FATAL reset. While the client does recover from the FATAL error reset, we are seeing a large number of such resets. Handling FATAL resets is lot more unnecessary work than issuing a few more hcalls so revert the commit and resend the maps to the VIOS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
