HI,sorry for reply again. If I change the code like blew:
 pci_read_config_byte(dev, PCI_INTERRUPT_PIN, &pin);
 if (!pin) {
        warn_on("some thing");
         return 0;
        }
It will fix the orign bug.
Or we should populated the pci_dev->pin value correctly according to PCI spec about "Interrupt Pin" Register.

I have no idea about it, any suggestions are welcome.
Thank you.
