The problem is that I introduced an assumption in acpiphp_configure_bridge,
which calls acpi_get_pci_dev. That call may fail on systems
with non-materialized PCI root bridges.

Fixing that assumption was addressed by this hunk in patch 2/3:

@@ -1387,16 +1363,7 @@ static void acpiphp_sanitize_bus(struct pci_bus *bus)
 /* Program resources in newly inserted bridge */
 static int acpiphp_configure_bridge (acpi_handle handle)
 {
-       struct pci_dev *dev;
-       struct pci_bus *bus;
-
-       dev = acpi_get_pci_dev(handle);
-       if (!dev) {
-               err("cannot get PCI domain and bus number for bridge\n");
-               return -EINVAL;
-       }
-
-       bus = dev->bus;
+       struct pci_bus *bus = pci_bus_from_handle(handle);

        pci_bus_size_bridges(bus);
        pci_bus_assign_resources(bus);

Now, my systems cannot do PCI root bridge hotplug, so that line
where we call acpi_get_pci_dev() won't cause us to fail, but I'm
concerned about machines in the wild that:

	a) can do PCI root bridge hotplug
	b) have non-materialized PCI root bridges

Maybe that is a small set of machines...

I agree that this series is on the large side for -rc4 and
beyond, but I'd prefer to fix it now.

The thing is, a "minimal" fix wouldn't save us that much, since
we'd still have to export acpi_pci_root stuff. We could maybe
drop patch 3/3 which makes the final diffstat look like this:

 drivers/acpi/pci_root.c            |   17 +-----
 include/acpi/acpi_bus.h            |   14 +++++
 drivers/pci/hotplug/acpiphp_glue.c |  108 ++++++++++++------------------------

Hm, actually, I can actually make that even smaller by separating
out the interface change.

Would you like me to do that and resubmit? I'd still need an ACK
from Len re: acpi_pci_root...

Thanks.
