This is strictly a discussion starter, obviously not for application.

The portdrv driver binds to pci_dev for PCIe Root Ports and Switch
Ports.  It creates additional pcie_devices for each "service" (Power
Management events, AER, hotplug, Downstream Port Containment, etc).
These pcie_devices have their own struct device, in addition to the
one in the struct pci_dev.

Service drivers can then bind to those pcie_devices, and their
dev_printk output is typically associated with those, e.g.,

  pciehp 0000:80:10.0:pcie004: Slot #36 ...

The "pcie004" is a bitmask that identifies the particular service, but
I don't think it's very useful to users, especially since we already
have "pciehp" as the driver name.

I think the fact that pcie_device has its own struct device is
probably a design mistake and it would be better if those "services"
were more tightly integrated into the PCI core.

Changing that would be a big project that I don't want to tackle right
now, but I think a small step would be to simplify the dmesg logging
by doing it with the underlying pci_dev instead of the pcie_device.
For example, we could do something like the patch below, which would
change the dmesg output like this:

  - pciehp 0000:80:10.0:pcie004: Slot #36 AttnBtn- PwrCtrl- MRL- AttnInd+ PwrInd+ HotPlug+ Surprise+ Interlock- NoCompl- LLActRep+
  + pcieport 0000:80:10.0: pciehp: Slot #36 AttnBtn- PwrCtrl- MRL- AttnInd+ PwrInd+ HotPlug+ Surprise+ Interlock- NoCompl- LLActRep+

Please discuss :)
