Apologize for the delay. I tried hotplug of PCI express card on a vendor box (running 2.6.18.x) with PCI express slot.
It looked a lot better. Here is dmesg output as soon a I hotplug and the device shows up in lspci  !!!

So I guess my mother board PCIe slot or BIOS is bad and looking for a looking for a low cost motherboard with working hotplug PCIe slot :)
