PCI on ARM is here now. PCI is everywhere (well, pseudo-PCI but that's the basic issue here) on Intel embedded. Some embedded systems will probably want to enumerate from the firmware and Linux will need to translate. For example because the UART or some critical GPIO that needs to be handled early on is behind a pseudo-PCI interface of some sort. I think we need to handle these cases rather than fail in obscure ways.
