I see. pci_bus_type.p is initialized by __bus_register() in this path:
pci_driver_init # postcore_initcall
bus_register(&pci_bus_type)
__bus_register
priv = kzalloc(sizeof(struct subsys_private))
bus->p = priv
klist_init(&priv->klist_devices, klist_devices_get, klist_devices_put)
I was hoping we could statically initialize the klist, but that doesn't
seem likely.
But I wonder if we could do something like the following. If we could,
then callers wouldn't have to worry about whether or not the bus has been
initialized.
