Users of pci_scan_bus_parented() should be converted to use either
pci_scan_root_bus() (preferred, but also calls pci_bus_add_devices)
or
pci_create_root_bus()
pci_scan_child_bus()
Since pci_scan_bus_parented(), I'm marking it deprecated now and will
actually remove it later.

+What: pci_scan_bus_parented()
+When: 3.5
+Why: The pci_scan_bus_parented() interface creates a new root bus. The
+ bus is created with default resources (ioport_resource and
+ iomem_resource) that are always wrong, so we rely on arch code to
+ correct them later. Callers of pci_scan_bus_parented() should
+ convert to using pci_scan_root_bus() so they can supply a list of
+ bus resources when the bus is created.
