Liviu,

Besides the check for PCI_PROBE_ONLY here, I think we also need to avoid calling
"pci_enable_resources()" in the "driver/pci/pci.c: pcibios_enable_device()" for
PCI_PROBE_ONLY mode since the resource is not assigned by Linux. Otherwise, the
"drivers/pci/setup-res.c: pci_enable_resource()" would fail w/ error:

     can't enable device: BAR ..... not assigned

Actually, in "arch/arm/kernel/bios32.c:", the weak "pcibios_enable_device()" function
also has the check for PCI_PROBE_ONLY mode before calling pci_enable_resources().

Thanks,

Suravee
