It just needs to be part of the bus logic for the specific bus that this
"firewall" is on.  Just like we do the same thing for USB or thunderbolt
devices.  Put this in the bus-specific code please.
I'd expect that this is going to affect at least platform and AMBA
buses.
Correct me if I'm wrong but creating a new type of bus would mean

that all the drivers living on this bus must be changed to register 
themselves on this bus ?

Or does a solution exist to let them live on the platform bus and call 
firewalled bus before been probed ?

All the impacted drivers could work on the existing bus with or without 
the firewall so I don't want to break

that.
