Agree. We need to refactor the whole of_create_pci_dev path to support > hot-plug for the long term. I will start looking at it. For now we should be > fine with the current patch. thanks of_create_pci_dev() duplicates a lot of the code in pci_setup_device(). I wish we didn't have to do that because it's easy to let them get out of sync, but I don't know if there are any reasonable alternatives. I've wondered in the past whether it would be possible to use the pci_setup_device() path on sparc & powerpc by writing PCI config accessors that look up OF properties as needed to fabricate responses to config reads. Several of the drivers in drivers/pci/host/* do a little bit of this fabrication, although I don't think any go to the extent of using OF.
