Yinghai,

Take my original question. 

B3 doesn't get the bus number, which its parent doesn't have free bus
number and there is no gap between B1 and B2. 

So in this case, the probe_resource() can't find bus number for B3. 
Then cause pci_bridge_probe_busn_res() return non-zero. 

Then B3 couldn't work fine?
