I think a better interface would put the 'notify' into the struct
pci_driver. That would make 'notify' a bad name .... how about
'virtual'? There's also no documentation for the second parameter to
'notify'.

Yes, putting the callback function to the 'pci_driver' is better. Looks like the 'virtual' is not very descriptive (and it's a adj. while other callbacks are verb). Any other candidates?

Thanks,
Yu
