FWIW I'm taking care of syncing up sparc in this area
right now.

I just noticed the ->dma_mask assignment got moved as well.

Really, any change made to drivers/pci/probe.c is going to
require powerpc and sparc changes these days.

We should and will commonize our OpenFirmware PCI device probing code
under driver/pci but until that happens a real effort needs to be put
in place to at least ping Benjamin and myself when changes are going
in to drivers/pci/probe.c

Thanks.
