Yes, the problem is that there are drivers (ie pcie-iproc.c) that
require the struct pci_bus (created by pci_register_host_bridge())
to fiddle with it to check link status and THEN scan the bus (so
the pci_register_host_bridge() call can't be embedded in the scan
interface - the driver requires struct pci_bus for pci_ops to work
before scanning the bus itself).

I will see how I can accommodate this change because you definitely
have a point.

Yep, sure.

Thanks for having a look !
