I still don't see any reason for any order being more important than any
other order.

Anyway, I've just rewritten the code to use PCI BIOS ordering when you
enable the PCI BIOS. It should keep a 2.0-compatible order now. We'll have
enough time to solve this issue in a really clean way in 2.3.

Have a nice fortnight
