yes, querying CS instance gives me Linux_CS instance as below:

wbemcli ain -ac Xen_HostedDependency 
'http://root:p@localhost:5988/root/virt:Xen_ComputerSystem.CreationClassName="Xen_ComputerSystem",Name="domguest"'
localhost:5988/root/virt:Linux_ComputerSystem.CreationClassName="Linux_ComputerSystem",Name="3b217"

This has been reflected in the HostedDependency/01_forward.py tc and 
this tc will work with/without sblim-base-provider.
If the HostedDependency query with the Linux_CS instance does not return 
CS instance yet, then the following test case will fail with the 
sblim-base-provider installed.

   1. HostedDependency - 02_reverse.py
   2. HostedDependency - 03_enabledstate.py    
   3. HostedDependency - 04_reverse_errs.py


And, also they cannot be fixed till the support to return CS instance 
for HostedDependency query with the Linux_CS instance is in.
The libvirt-cim version on the machine is 694.

Thanks and Regards,
Deepti.
