What you say is a matter of another change. This patch just fixes the
already defined init-hook interface. Indeed the initializations
performed in the framework of the init-method need to be cleaned up in
case of the PCIe host probe procedure failure. I can't fix the DW PCIe
platform drivers since they may have some specifics I am not aware of,
but at least the interface needs to be provided for the new drivers.
One such low-level driver is submitted for review in this patchset.

What you suggest is a lot of additional work including preliminary
design settling discussions and consequent review. Alas I don't have
time for this anymore especially seeing the need for such finer grained
hooking isn't justified by neither the current platform drivers nor
the driver submitted by me. Sorry I can't fulfill your request.
