PCI: Introduce pci_alloc_dev(struct pci_bus*) to replace alloc_pci_dev()
Here we introduce a new interface to replace alloc_pci_dev(): struct pci_dev *pci_alloc_dev(struct pci_bus *bus) It takes a "struct pci_bus *" argument, so we can alloc a PCI device on a target PCI bus, and it acquires a reference on the pci_bus. We use pci_alloc_dev(NULL) to simplify the old alloc_pci_dev(), and keep it for a while but mark it as __deprecated. Holding a reference to the pci_bus ensures that referencing pci_dev->bus is valid as long as the pci_dev is valid. [bhelgaas: keep existing "return error early" structure in pci_alloc_dev()] Signed-off-by: Gu Zheng <guz.fnst@cn.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang Liu <jiang.liu@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
