The PCI configuration space read/write functions were special casing
causing?
else I don't get it
No, no it's really "special casing", i.e "making a special case". I must admit I don't know if it's proper English, but clearly, "special causing" doesn't make any sense, and "special casing" is what I wanted to write.
the situation where PCI_SLOT(devfn) != 0, and returned PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND in this case.
However, while this is what is intended for the root bus, it is not intended for the child busses, as it prevents discovering devices with
buses
Merriam-Webster says that both exists [1], though buses is apparently more common. The kernel has 633 occurrences of busses, and 785 occurrences of buses.

So I'd say my commit log is good as-is :)
Best regards,
