model information blocks in virtual subsystems (rule 022) - ben.call - 06-03-2018

MISRA AC SLSF 022 states that a model information block is required for every subsystem. Does application of this rule include virtual subsystems, or only "true" (i.e., atomic or nonvirtual) subsystems?
Stated differently: Virtual subsystems should share the identity and origin of the parent model, atomic subsystem, or library to which they belong (the rationale for rule 022), so do they need that information reiterated in their own model information block?
I would appreciate knowing what the community consensus is on this topic.
