Isn't this for the same issue Alex and others have been working on?
It doesn't feel like we have consensus on how this should be fixed.
You're proposing a change to work_on_cpu(), Alex proposed a change to
pci_call_probe() [1], Yinghai proposed some changes to the PCI core
SR-IOV code and several drivers [2].
