OK.

I suggested that to make them all parallel:

  pci_bus_domain_nr()
  of_pci_bus_domain_nr()
  acpi_pci_bus_domain_nr()

If you want to make them all *pci_bus_find_domain_nr() that would be
OK with me, but I think it is worth keeping them the same except for
the prefix (none/"of_"/"acpi_").  I think that's what you suggested
below.

Sounds perfect!
