[RFC PATCH v1 2/6] PCI: split PCI bus device registration into twostages

[Jiang Liu]

From: Jiang Liu <liuj97@xxxxxxxxx>

When handling BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE event for a new PCI bridge
device, the notification handler can't hold reference count
to the new PCI bus because the device object for the new bus
(pci_dev->subordinate->dev) hasn't been initialized yet.

Split the PCI bus device registration into two stages as below,
so that the event handler could hold reference counts to the new
PCI bus when handling BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE event.

1) device_initialize(&pci_dev->dev)
2) device_initialize(&pci_dev->subordinate->dev)
3) notify BUS_NOTIFY_ADD_DEVICE event for pci_dev
4) device_add(&pci_dev->dev)
5) device_add(&pci_dev->subordinate->dev)
