Why a rwsemaphore and not a simple mutex?  It doesn't appear like you
attempt to handle any multiple-reader usecases.

Why even maintain your own list of devices?  Doesn't the bus_type
already do so for you? (And provides conveniences such as
bus_for_each_dev, etc).

Nit: extraneous line.

Again, unsure why you maintain your own list :(.

How could irq ever be NULL?

This isn't explicitly necessary (DEFINE_IDA statically initializes the
ida).

This is also unnecessary.

This seems misplaced.  Perhaps it should really be in the PCI carrier
patch?

Nit: it'd be nicer if you consistently used the chameleon_ prefix.  That
is, rename this chameleon_parse_cells(...).

Same comment about using chameleon_ prefix.

And this one, too :).

This could probably use a kerneldoc.

How is this node used?
