[c-nsp] Force PFC mode

Is there a way to force the operating PFC mode, when say a lower end DFC 
is installed and is forcing the entire chassis into a lower operating 
mode?

For example:

  1  Distributed Forwarding Card WS-F6700-DFC3A     SAL092823GG  0.551  PwrDown
  3  Centralized Forwarding Card WS-F6700-CFC       SAD0914089M  2.0    Ok
  5  Policy Feature Card 3       WS-F6K-PFC3BXL     SAD091407UA  1.6    Ok
  5  MSFC3 Daughterboard         WS-SUP720          SAD091300EE  2.3    Ok

#show platform hardware pfc mode 
PFC operating mode : PFC3A

Even with the module with the DFC3A forcably powered down, the system 
still operates in PFC3A mode. A reload doesn't help it either, it still 
comes up in PFC3A mode. I'm hoping there is something a little bit better 
than "remove the card".
