The pci_find_next_bus() is not hotplug safe, so introduce PCI hotplug
safe interfaces to walk PCI buses. To avoid some deadlock scenarios,
two interfaces are introduced.

The first one is pci_for_each_bus(), which walks all PCI buses holding
read lock on the pci_bus_sem.

The second one is pci_for_each_started_bus(), which walks all started
PCI buses without holding any global locks. Started PCI buses are those
which have been added to the device tree by calling device_add().

Hi Bjorn,
        How about this PCI bus iterator design? It's a little ugly that
we need to two interfaces to work around some deadlock scenarios.
And I plan to split the task into two parts:
        1) a hotplug safe PCI bus iteraror to replace pci_find_next_bus
        2) handle hotplug notifications to update bus related states.

My patchset at http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-pci/msg17515.html has
patially solved issue 2 above for x86/ACPI, and will add more supports
for other platforms.
        Thanks!
        Gerry
I like this interface:

    int pci_for_each_bus(int (* cb)(struct pci_bus *, void *), void *data)

quite a bit because it has the potential for removing all the list
knowledge from the callers, but there are two things I don't like:

  1) The interface would allow the PCI core to call the callback for
future hot-added buses, but your implementation doesn't have that yet.

  2) I'd rather have something like "pci_for_each_dev()"  so this is
device-based instead of bus-based.  The struct pci_bus is of limited
usefulness outside the core, except as a container for a set of
devices.  So the users of pci_for_each_bus() would often iterate
through that set of devices, and given the complications of SR-IOV
virtual buses, I don't think it's really clear how to do that
iteration correctly.
