Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  * Users that write their own plugin, to part EGL IRs, using    *
  * PartInfo                                                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * The PartInfo logic was not differentiating between two or    *
  * more functions with the same name, but different parameters. *
  * This would cause the wrong function to be returned in some   *
  * cases, to the user-written logic.                            *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• The PartInfo logic has been updated to take into account the
  function signatures, to provide the proper function information
  back to the caller.
