But why do you need pci_find_host_bridge() at all?  Most drivers use
the pci_bus.sysdata pointer for this purpose, e.g., see db271747a04d
("PCI: mediatek: Use bus->sysdata to get host private data")
I will send a patch to use bus->sysdata instead of pci_find_host_bridge().
That would be excellent!  Thank you!
