In case you have > the hardware please do a full conversion to the real pci probing API. Then please mark every SCSI user of pci_find_device() as && BROKEN and delete them in 6 months because I want to remove pci_find_device because its a hazard. The patch I proposed ensures the driver doesn't crash the box iterating the list unsafely. If you won't accept safe iteration the driver should be deleted. I guess the other alternative would be to add !HOTPLUG to all the offenders and remove pci_find_device if hotplug is enabled. Be honest - nobody is ever going to convert that driver or the other ancient scsi drivers or the serial drivers to the pci module API even if you play political games NAKing other fixes to try and make it happen. James - what would you prefer - removal, && BROKEN, && !HOTPLUG or at least fixing one thing that needs a fix ?
