[PATCH v4 1/2] PCI: Expose devm_pci_alloc_host_bridge_release()

From: Bjorn Helgaas

Date: Tue Oct 13 2026 - 18:05:06 EST


devm_pci_alloc_host_bridge() allocates a struct pci_host_bridge and also
parses device tree resources and claims them. There are drivers, e.g.,
pcie-iproc-bcma.c, that need to allocate a pci_host_bridge but do not need
device tree resources.

Expose devm_pci_alloc_host_bridge_release() so they can avoid the device
tree parts by calling pci_alloc_host_bridge() directly and adding the devm
release function manually.
