Hi Don,
Thanks for your review and comments very much!

Finally, 'the comment below':
I know you were following Bjorn's suggestion, which I thought
was an improvement, but why not do above assignment in pci_device_serial_number() ?

I don't do assignment in pci_device_serial_number() because pci_device_serial_number()
is an EXPORT_SYMBOL, and will be used to get dsn for non-scaned device, for example:

1. we have pcie device in slot before suspend.
2. we removed the device during suspend.
3. we reinserted a new device during suspend.
4. we should check the device change during resume, so we
try to use pcie device serial number to identify changes.
But the pci_dev structure maybe the old stale data. So
I prefer to get dsn by return.

what about this:

static void pci_init_capabilities(struct pci_dev *dev)
........
pci_dsn_init(dev);
..........


void pci_dsn_init(dev)
{
dev->sn = pci_device_serial_number(dev);
}



Looks good! I think that meets all the uses (use in init, post-suspend).
