Can you send your v3 ?
I didn't submit my latest version because I recalled Ben's objections, and I never got around asking you if you plan to send a new version of your patch.
I had to drop the idea of using IORESOURCE_DISABLED; pretty much all kernel code uses the "!flags" test to identify unused resources. I tried to change that, but just could not get it to work. I ended up introducing a new bus flag instead, PCI_BUS_FLAGS_NO_IO, which works quite nicely since it propagates to child buses.
Thanks, Guenter
