Subject: [PATCH] PCI: Prevent NULL dereference during pciehp probe

pciehp assumes that dev->subordinate exists. But we do not assign a bus
if we run out of bus numbers during enumeration. This leads to a NULL
dereference in init_slot (and other places).

Change pciehp_probe to return -ENODEV when no subordinate bus is
present.
