Something like this:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20181212215453.GJ99796@google.com/T/#m649d86ea3c65f669c74d048f89afbaf473876ac3

Not a runtime flag, but a function pointer in struct pci_host_bridge.
This would provide the requested flexibility. The problem with this
approach is that it requires other patches that are not yet upstream
(https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/playground.git/log/?h=pci-probe-rework).

Since this discussion is going on since a few months and I want to
have this code upstream and in distributions for HW enablement I've
asked Bjorn to go with the initial approach (weak functions) and
promised to move that to struct pci_host_bridge once Arnd's patches
are upstream. Would that be OK for you too?
