I assume this is in a system where there are more than one type of bridge
(i.e. a ca91c042 and tsi148).
I'm not sure that passing a list of bus numbers to each driver is the correct
way to resolve this. This issue also exists for hard drives and ethernet
devices as well.
The network subsystem either has or uses a mechanism to allow udev rules to
rename the devices (this seems to be done by MAC address on my system).
I believe drive ordering is resolved to some extent with UUIDs. Persistent
device naming can be provided by using udev rules to create symlinks (such as
"/dev/cdrom" etc), with the drives are determined by system topology.
I'm wondering whether re-ordering the bus numbering based on system topology
using udev rules (where persistent bus numbering is required), or bind based
on system topology and not need persistent numbering at all).
