Yes, you are right, I went for the second option given what you
say below and sent you and Russell an additional patch that
should be added to this series.

Well, I do not think that's an *existing* scenario, but this does
not mean that the code is correct, so you are right and it has to
be fixed, please let me know if the patch I sent is fine.
I really have to remove PCI_PROBE_ONLY entirely from ARM/ARM64
kernels.
Thanks !
