No.

Bjorn will get patches from my branch and have to update change log at least.
and then into pci/next.

current still have several branch in the waiting list
for-pci-res-alloc
for-pci-busn-alloc
for-pci-root-bus-hotplug
for-pci-for-each-res-addon

also for-x86-irq and for-iommu are for pci root bus hotplug related too, but
need to push them to tip pci related get merged.

Current status: for-pci-busn-alloc is pending with
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/yinghai/linux-yinghai.git;a=patch;h=b00469b377231ebe0b76248ec6d1866b51966c97
Bjorn thought that is too complicated.

Thanks
