Thanks for your review, Bjorn.

There is PCI bus referred (struct powernv_php_slot::bus), but it's
not always valid. So I'll add one more field "struct pci_dev *pdev"
which is initialized to the parent PCI device of the slot, then print
those messages with dev_warn().

Ben already suggested some better names in another reply. I'll pick
it if you agree: pci_add_pci_devices().

According to Ben's suggestion in another reply, it would be pci_remove_pci_devices()
if you agree :-)

Thanks for pointing it out. I'll fix it up in next revision.

I'll pick Ben's suggested name if you agree: of_pci_node_to_bus().

Thanks,
