that's my error. Basically, I figured at the time that
- everything was going PCIe
- it was simpler to just have a domain on everything, and have it be
"empty" and 0 on non-PCIe systems for what little time we had them.
I.e. rather than have #ifdef everywhere just have a fixed set of rules
as to the hierarchy.

In many cases, we have chips that have a device function and a bridge
function. Again, I may have made a mistake when I moved the code over.
But there really are chips that have both functions.

Also, I was doing my best to recreate the *function* of the v2 code. I
agree that as a result we have weirdness inherited from v2 and we
would do well to try to fix that.

We can not fix all this stuff right away, but I am glad you are
pointing out that we have a need for improvement ;-)

Thanks
