I can certainly add a warning to the loop, it loses a bit of its teeth
here though since we can't specify which driver to blame at this point.
Maybe that warning and perhaps this enabling roll-back should happen in
drivers/pci/pci-driver.c:pci_device_remove(). Bjorn, would you prefer
it be done generically there? Thanks,
Alex
