In my embedded case I have a complex PCI-E connected SOC device.

This is modeled in OF by having a PCI-E bus, a PCI-E device node, and
then all of the SOC devices (I2C, GPIO, drivers, etc) placed under the
PCI-E device node.

The PCI driver that matches the device just turns it on and calls
of_platform_populate(..) with its own node as an argument.

So of_device_make_bus_id isn't called on a PCI-E device node, it is
called on the platform_device children of that node, and due to the
way the other code works, and what the OF rules seem to be, those
childen all use assigned-addresses. Without this patch the code just
assigns monotonic ids to those nodes.
