Bjorn:
Why wouldn't (shouldn't?) the bus->self field be set for a host bridge device?
Should this situation be repaired in the host-brige config/setup code elsewhere in the kernel.
... and here, a check-and-fail with info of what doesn't have it setup (another new pci function to do the check & prinfo), so it can point to the offending host-bridge, and thus, the code that needs to be updated?
