Hi Arnd,

I have been looking into patch (if that what you meant) :
[RFC PATCH v2] drivers: pci: move PCI domain assignment to generic PCI code

This is not enough for me since it gets domain number from its OF parent 
or just uses sequential increased domain number. In my case, I do not 
have parent so I need to get segment from ACPI node which is not 
available there.

On the other hand, patch set posted by Wang Yijing:
[RFC PATCH 00/16] Refine PCI host bridge scan interfaces
tends to solve that issue.

What would be the best way for this patch, keep busdev->sysdata usage 
and rebase once Wang Yijing patch set will be accepted?

Regards,
Tomasz
