The PMU/EDAC devices are all PCI devices do I need the 'struct pci_dev *'.
I'm not aware of other ways to access these devices. Please enlighten
me if I'm missing something.

Me enlighten you on Cavium hardware?! You're funny.

So I don't know whether the PCI hotplug code can run more than one
function upon PCI ID detection. Probably Greg will say, write a
multiplexer wrapper. :-)

-ENOCONTEXT....

Anyway, pci questions are best asked on the linux-pci at vger list.  And
yes, all PCI devices end up with a 'struct pci_dev *' automatically.

Simple: so they have a PCI ID of a memory contoller and want to hotplug
two drivers for it. And those two drivers should remain independent from
each other.

Thanks.
