Will do.

a) I think what was decided was introducing a device core "location"
property that can be exposed to userspace to help it to decide whether
or not to attach a driver to a device. Yes, that is still the plan.
(Mild sidenote: userspace may not need to distinguish between internal
and external devices if it can assume that no internal PCI devices
will show up after "echo 0 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers_autoprobe". But
nevertheless...)

b) Note that even with (a) in place, we still need a parameter that
can ensure that drivers are not bound to external devices at boot,
*before* userspace gets a chance to disable "drivers_autoprobe".
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/6/15/1453
Is it OK to add such a parameter in device core?

Thanks,

Rajat
