You can also avoid making so many changes to usb_hcd_pci_probe() by 
registering your own probe routine in xhci-pci.c.  Have it call 
usb_hcd_pci_probe() twice.  You can add a new HCD_NO_RESOURCES flag 
bit, to prevent the various interrupt and memory resources from being 
allocated when the second hcd is registered.
