Hi Bjorn,

Thanks for the review.

I guess it could be interpreted both ways.

At the moment, we don't have any need for PCI_PROBE_ONLY as we always
probe. However, I purposely used the same code as the generic driver so as
to make any future refactoring easier to identify.

I'm happy to change it or leave it the same, your call.

Thanks
Phil
