The sequence of routines that lead to pci device initialization.

pci_legacy_init() -> pcibios_scan_root() -> pci_scan_child_bus()->
pci_scan_slot()-> pci_scan_single_device()
->pci_device_add()-> device_add(&dev->dev) -> bus_probe_device() ->
device_attach()




struct pci_dev *pci_scan_single_device(struct pci_bus *bus, int devfn)
{
        struct pci_dev *dev;

        dev = pci_get_slot(bus, devfn);
        if (dev) {
                pci_dev_put(dev);
                return dev;
        }

        dev = pci_scan_device(bus, devfn);
        if (!dev)
                return NULL;

        pci_device_add(dev, bus);

        return dev;
}
