Hm so does that mean that non-bridge devices on those busses should also
be done depth first? I understand wanting to find all the busses first,
but devices too? All the bioses I've seen seem to find all the busses,
then assign resources to devices starting with those on bus 0 then bus 1
etc. This is also how FreeBSD <=3.4 work. Am I just missing something?
