Well, that would seem odd, still. It only returns BUS_PROBE_GENERIC (not 0), so
David's driver's probe routine should still be called to get a chance to attach to
the device.
Maybe it doesn't do that exactly because device and vendor ID are zeroes as David
described earlier.
Eh? device_probe_and_attach()'s loop to probe drivers is not PCI-specific, it
has no idea if a given device is PCI device or not let alone if it has non-zero
subvendor IDs. Also, ata_pci_probe() doesn't look at the subvendor IDs at all.
Also, the ATA driver only allocates its BAR once, so it shouldn't
trigger the panic in question in that case (the panic is only triggered when you
try to double-allocate a BAR).
This makes only if the BAR has sane values. Not sure what happens if the BAR has
some junk that duplicates other PCI device, or something like that.
The panic in question is due to a resource that was reserved by the parent
bus (i.e. either ACPI or PCI) using resource_list_reserve(), then a driver
called resource_list_alloc() on it once successfully, and
resource_list_alloc() is being called a second time to allocate an already-
allocated resource. That won't happen due to junk in a BAR (and BARs are
all standard config header registers anyway).
