It looks like pci_walk_bus() is a poor replacement for when dealing with
slots. There might be multiple slots on a bus or a mix of slots and
non-slots, so for each device pci_walk_bus() finds on a subordinate bus
I'd need to walk up the tree to find the parent bridge on the original
bus to figure out if it's in the same slot. Should we have a
pci_walk_slot() function? Thanks,
