I applied this to pci/misc for v4.12, thanks!

Arnd's patch included:

  Fixes: 4e64dbe226e7 ("PCI: generic: Expose pci_host_common_probe() for use by other drivers")

which didn't look quite right to me.  I was originally hoping to merge
it for v4.11, but I didn't think I had quite the right justification
for that.

In any case, I like the idea of making the declaration visible in
exactly the same case the definition is visible.
