I thought I addressed this one, didn't I?

This one appears to have been removed.  There's no pci_create_root_bus()
in all arch/s390, as far as I can say.

I modified this one too, is that not sufficient?

These two pass NULL as the 4th argument to pci_create_root_bus() and don't
need to be updated, AFAICS.

I did it this way for handle to be compiled out when CONFIG_ACPI is not set
(struct acpi_dev_node is an empty structure in that case).
