Re: [REGRESSION] PCI: Dynamic OF node creation hangs on invalid bridge configuration

Ok, here it is...
I tested this quirk on Linux 6.18.44 with CONFIG_PCI_DYNAMIC_OF_NODES=y,
and it boots without either OF fix. The diff below omits the test logging.
PCI_FIXUP_HEADER runs after the resources have been parsed using the
original header type, and changing hdr_type also affects configuration
restore. I don't know enough about this part of PCI to judge whether
that's safe, so I'll wait for your advice before submitting it as a patch.
Thanks,
Angel J
