It should be simplify acpi code a little.

I will reorder acpi parts as separate patcheset for review.

acpi pci binding should be solved if len could accept acpi changes.

for pci separate driver attach, that is for registering pci dev to
tree early instead of
waiting till pci_bus_add_devices.
Let me know if you still want us to pursue that.

Otherwise I'd like to move root bus and host bridge registering into
pci_bus_add_devices().

Thanks
