Greg,

There was some code added to warn if pci_get_subsys() is called and the
pci_devices is empty.

I'm wondering if there is some point at which we know its ok for the
pci_devices list be empty if there are no devices on the bus so we can
stop printing the message.

On an embedded PPC reference system I see this message 6 times when I've
got no cards in the PCI slots.


I'd suggest we just remove the warning. Also the one in pci_find_subsys().

I let them go through because I was curious to know what would cause it to
trigger - it might be an indication of other bugs. But nothing very
interesting happened and they're of no use.

Works for me.
