Just FYI, Jinhui posted a series that touches this same code and might
need some coordination:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/20260107175548.1792-1-guojinhui.liam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

IIUC, Jinhui's series adds some more NUMA smarts in the driver core
sync probing path and removes corresponding NUMA code from the PCI
core probe path.
