What about /dev/bus/pci/0 or /dev/bus/pci/pci0 instead?

That way we could hook roots of busses (which are "." nodes, like
if they where mounted independently) better into /dev/bus.

And even implement the thing as a mount point later, if we go the way
Al Viro suggested and have independent "device filesystems"
for the subsystems themselves.

Just an idea...
