Hmm, I was going to bring this up as well... ;-)

X was changed quite a while ago to domain/bus/dev/func, which was a lot easier to
deal with than trying to "offset" the bus with domain * some large number + bus.
Currently max nodes is 512 so it deserves it's own field. ;-)

Btw, are you suggesting combining device and function? That might be inadvertently
squeezing something that shouldn't be.

Thanks,
Mike
