2) The OF device tree nodes for PCI devices do not result in the
creation of a platform device.

But they are created for the children right? And that's the one
you need them for probing.

I'm still not convinced, sorry.


Let's let this topic rest for a few days. My original patch was defective, so it cannot be merged. I will sleep on this, try a few things and perhaps revisit it if I still think it is advisable.

Thanks,
David Daney
