No, it isn't. The reason is that the .bind pointers of all devices below the
root bridge are populated from within acpi_pci_root_add() and are NULL before
it is called. Therefore they are NULL when acpi_bus_check_add() checks them.

Of course, I'm referring to this patch:

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1889821/

After this and [2/6] (https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1884701/) have been
applied, it is quite easy to verify that acpi_pci_bind() is called exactly once
for each PCI device during boot (just add a debug printk to that function) and
the same should happen during root bridge hotplug.

I agree with that. :-)

Moreover, I don't think we need acpi_pci_bind() and acpi_pci_unbind() at all.

Well, what about moving the code from acpi_pci_bind()/acpi_pci_unbind()
somewhere else and removing those things altogether?
