In this series I have no plan to export the pci_create_host_bridge() to callers, because I think pci_host_bridge_ops could make callers have the ability to setup the platform specific operations. But if this is needed, we could introduce another patches to export it. > > Also you don't explain what the list of host bridges is > used for.
