No need to justify both margins, the left is enough :-)
Doesn't need to be indented either.

General rule of thumb: when modifying code always follow the
existing style for spacing, indentation, etc.  In this case
you would need spaces around the "=".

You might be able to do something like this:

		if (dev->subordinate && list_empty(&dev->subordinate->devices))

and avoid the need for a new flag.

I'm not sure this approach is enough, though.  What if we have 4K of
I/O space available, and we have this situation:

	bridge A (disabled)
	bridge B (disabled)
		dev D (needs I/O space)

I think your patch will let us ignore a failure to allocate space for
bridge A.  But the real problem is the order: we have to allocate space
for bridge B *first*.
