I applied this to for-linus with changelog as below for v4.5, thanks!
Wow, this is terrible. All ARM32 systems that use pci_common_init()
crash at boot. That includes cns3xxx, dove, footbridge, iopl13xx,
ip32x, iop33x, ixp4xx, ks8695, mv78xx0, orion5x, pxa, sa1100, etc.
Apparently they've been crashing since v4.0, when 7c674700098c and
8c7d14746abc appeared. I can hardly believe nobody noticed until now.
Actually, I did find one problem report:
http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,17868,22070,quote=1 from last May,
but apparently it got lost in a forum and never found its way
upstream.
I reworked the changelog because this problem will affect *any* arch
that enables CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC and supplies NULL "parent"
pointers -- ia64, mips, mn10300, s390, x86, etc., would be affected if
they enabled CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC.
I also added a "Fixes:" tag for 7c674700098c, since that's the commit
that added the generic code we're fixing. Backports of 7c674700098c
should also backport this change.

PCI: Allow a NULL "parent" pointer in pci_bus_assign_domain_nr()
pci_create_root_bus() passes a "parent" pointer to
pci_bus_assign_domain_nr(). When CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC is defined,
pci_bus_assign_domain_nr() dereferences that pointer. Many callers of
pci_create_root_bus() supply a NULL "parent" pointer, which leads to a NULL
pointer dereference error.
7c674700098c ("PCI: Move domain assignment from arm64 to generic code")
moved the "parent" dereference from arm64 to generic code. Only arm64 used
that code (because only arm64 defined CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC), and it
always supplied a valid "parent" pointer. Other arches supplied NULL
"parent" pointers but didn't defined CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC, so they
used a no-op version of pci_bus_assign_domain_nr().
8c7d14746abc ("ARM/PCI: Move to generic PCI domains") defined
CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS_GENERIC on ARM, and many ARM platforms use
pci_common_init(), which supplies a NULL "parent" pointer.
These platforms (cns3xxx, dove, footbridge, iop13xx, etc.) crash
with a NULL pointer dereference like this while probing PCI:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000000a4
PC is at pci_bus_assign_domain_nr+0x10/0x84
LR is at pci_create_root_bus+0x48/0x2e4
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
