Let's try it and see what happens :)
Yeah we should theoretically be able to handle this. The graphics
drivers will need a bit of work to handle it (run POST-like operations
at insert time) but it should be possible.
So Praveen, if you want to send a patch to remove the check for display
devices, I'll apply it and we can try things out.
I submitted a patch a little while ago ([PATCH] PCI: hotplug: pciehp:
Removed check for hotplug of display devices). It removes the check
excluding hotplug of display adapters and corrects the return code error
bug I mentioned earlier. The patch is only for pciehp. I can submit
another one for shpchp (the check also exists there) but I have no way
of testing it. Please let me know if I should submit that as well.
Thanks,
Praveen
