Hi Bjorn,
Thanks for the feedback. Much of the issues you mentioned look pretty
straight forward to resolve, and will fix of for the next revision.
I have some immediate follow up comments to two issues you brought up:

The PCI core should own domain number allocation. We have a little
bit of generic domain support, e.g., pci_get_new_domain_nr(). On x86,
I think that is compiled-in, but currently not used -- currently x86
only uses _SEG from ACPI. How would you handle collisions between a
domain number assigned here (or via pci_get_new_domain_nr()) and a
hot-added host bridge where _SEG uses the same domain?
Thank you for bringing this up as I hadn't thought much about it and may
have misunderstood the meaning of _SEG. AIUI, it is used to identify a
logical grouping. The OS does not need to use the same identifier for
the domain, so we there's no need to collide if we can assign the domain
of a a new _SEG to the next available domain_nr.
On pci_get_new_domain_nr(), can we make this use something like an
ida instead of an atomic? I think we'd like to put domains back into
the available pool if someone unbinds it. I imagine someone will test
unbinding/rebinding these devices in a loop for a while, and will file
a bug after the atomic increments to 64k. :)

I thought BAR0 was CFGBAR. I missed the connection to a bus number
aperture.
Right, BAR0 is the CFGBAR and is the device's aperture to access its
domain's config space. Based on your comment, I assume that's not
a bus resource, though it seems to work with the posted code. :)
