This is preceded by:
         php_slot = kzalloc(sizeof(*php_slot), GFP_KERNEL);

Ie. php_slot is zeroed.

I believe this introduced a (unlikely) NULL ptr dereference.

This continues:
         php_slot->pdev                  = bus->self;
         php_slot->bus                   = bus;


And SLOT_WARN() is defined as:
#define SLOT_WARN(sl, x...) \
         ((sl)->pdev ? pci_warn((sl)->pdev, x) : 
dev_warn(&(sl)->bus->dev, x))

The else branch is alkays taken in the 'if' above, which still 
dereferences NULLed (sl)->bus here.

Here, php_slot used to have both ->pdev and ->bus assigned at this point.

Right?
