This field will point to first device that is not owned by pcistub.

OK.

pcistub_search_dev() is invoked through pci_walk_bus() and it expects 
int return code.

I don't think EINVAL is right return code for this case.

Not sure. Will check with Konrad and address this comment.

I will post revised patch later this week. Thanks.
