[PATCH 0/5] PCI: Finally make pci_root_buses private

[PATCH 0/5] PCI: Finally make pci_root_buses private

[Gerd Bayer]

Hi all!

The ominous warning about pci_root_buses in drivers/pci/probe.c caught
my attention. Looking closer, I found that there are uses in four
arch-specific files left before we can stop exposing that symbol outside
of drivers/pci.

Finish off the job that Yinghai Lu started in 2013 - see
https://msgid.link/1359265003-16166-23-git-send-email-yinghai@kernel.org/

The entire series has been compile-tested only - with defconfigs on
alpha, arm, powerpc, and x86.

[PATCH 1/5] alpha/pci: Use official API to iterate over PCI buses

[Gerd Bayer]

Replace iterating over pci_root_buses with the official
pci_find_next_bus() call provided by PCI core. This allows to make
pci_root_buses private to PCI core.

What's with the 'bus = NULL'? I thought there was some crazy macro magic
going on or something, but pci_find_next_bus() looks like a normal
function that's just taking a pointer and not _modifying_ the pointer value.

Also, wouldn't this be a more readable way of writing what you have?

	while (bus = pci_find_next_bus(bus))

For that matter isn't the kernel idiom for these things:

	for_each_pci_bus(bus) {
		// do bus stuff
	}

I'm kinda surprised there isn't one of those already.

[PATCH 5/5] PCI: Make pci_root_buses private to PCI core

[Gerd Bayer]

After all users of pci_root_buses external to PCI core have been
converted to using pci_find_next_bus(), move its declaration to the
PCI core code and stop exporting the symbol.
