You have a good argument for moving the &dev->bus_list maintenance from
pci_destroy_dev() to pci_release_dev(), because I think we can call
pci_destroy_dev() twice for the same device, and we don't want to do the
list_del() twice.

I suspect we want to move other stuff, too, but you haven't explained
why we need the device_del(), device_release_driver(), and
pci_free_resources() changes. Possibly similar arguments apply. I'd
rather see separate patches to move these pieces so we can think about
them individually.

Please split the host bridge changes into a separate patch. One logical
change, one patch. If they *can* be split up, please split them up.

There are seven patches in that series. I don't know which one you're
referring to.

Please run a spell checker on your changelog. There are many spelling
errors.

This is wrong. You can't reference dev->is_added after put_device()
because you have to assume you are holding the only reference, and the
pci_dev may be deallocated before put_device() returns.
