I'm not really a fan of this because pci_sysfs_init() is a bit of a hack to begin with, and this makes it even more complicated. It's not obvious from the code why we need pci_sysfs_init(), but Yinghai hinted [1] that we need to create sysfs after assigning resources. I experimented by removing pci_sysfs_init() and skipping the ROM BAR sizing. In that case, we create sysfs files in pci_bus_add_device() and later assign space for the ROM BAR, so we fail to create the "rom" sysfs file. The current solution to that is to delay the sysfs files until pci_sysfs_init(), a late_initcall(), which runs after resource assignments. But I think it would be better if we could create the sysfs file when we assign the BAR. Then we could get rid of the late_initcall() and that implicit ordering requirement. But I haven't tried to code it up, so it's probably more complicated than this. I guess ideally we would assign all the resources before pci_bus_add_device(). If we could do that, we could just remove pci_sysfs_init() and everything would just work, but I think that's a HUGE can of worms.
