That's actually very useful. We could scan top to bottom
so e.g. acpi can intercept bridges.
Be careful about "top to bottom". Does top-to-bottom mean by bus or by
composition? This has been a huge can of worms in the discussions about
recursive realization.
One thing we could do is to always go through /machine even before
invoking the bus handler. Then /machine can do machine-specific checks
to interpose the PCI host bridge and/or the ACPI device's hotplug handlers.
But this can be done on top of this series, it has nothing to do with
memory hotplug and this one is already big enough!
