I think this is accidentally abandoned code and introduced here:
    http://lkml.org/lkml/2001/12/22/43

So it was called from pci_do_scan_bus(). Can you track down when this
was removed from pci_do_scan_bus() ?

But it was once used by parisc port:
    http://lists.parisc-linux.org/pipermail/parisc-linux/2001-June/037259.html

and then perhaps got removed soon after in the generic code:
    http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/linux/linux-kernel/2003-01/0388.html

But I'm not finding the exact patch that removed it.

thanks,
grant
