Yeah, I reached the same conclusion and this is the preliminary fix I
had written for it.  I don't like that I had to duplicate a few lines of
code, but maybe it's not too bad.  Also the comments need to be
clarified a bit more.
 
If the child table is still a partitioned table, the patch seems not work. 

I figure out a quick fix as the attached. I add a bool argument into the QueueFKConstraintValidation().
If it is true, it means we recursively call QueueFKConstraintValidation(), then we don't add the newconstraint to the  queue.

I'm not sure about this fix. Any thoughts?
