I think I was mistaken about this.  A VF device might be on a virtual bus.
 And a virtual bus never has a bridge leading to it, i.e., its bus->self
pointer is NULL.  But I think a virtual bus always has a *parent* bus,
i.e., for a VF, dev->bus->parent is always valid.  This is because when
virtfn_add_bus() creates the virtual bus with "pci_add_new_bus(bus, NULL,
busnr)", the "bus" parameter (which becomes the parent bus of the virtual
bus) is a valid bus.

So with your patch, I think we *will* actually look for _HPP and _HPX for
VF devices, because we'll look for the handle of the bridge leading to the
virtual bus (which will return NULL), then for the handle of the bridge
leading to the virtual bus' parent bus, etc.

If you agree, Yinghai, I'll apply the patch below (same as what you posted,
with different changelog and a comment in the code).

The acpi_pci_get_bridge_handle(struct pci_bus *) interface niggles at me a
little because I don't think there's any concept of an ACPI device for a
PCI *bus*, so it doesn't seem like a very good fit to say "find the handle
for this bus".  But that's for later.

    PCI: Don't oops on virtual buses in acpi_pci_get_bridge_handle()
    
    acpi_pci_get_bridge_handle() returns the ACPI handle for the bridge device
    (either a host bridge or a PCI-to-PCI bridge) leading to a PCI bus.  But
    SR-IOV virtual functions can be on a virtual bus with no bridge leading to
    it.  Return a NULL acpi_handle in this case instead of trying to
    dereference the NULL pointer to the bridge.
    
    This fixes a NULL pointer dereference oops in pci_get_hp_params() when
    adding SR-IOV VF devices on virtual buses.
