Can you for the FPGA programming in the auto.c and issue an soft_reset in auto.c?

Hi All,
The PCI interface to our "special sauce" is an FPGA that we're programming after the OS boots. The hardware doesn't have PCI hot-plug support, which means we're forced to reboot after programming in order to re-enumerate the bus in BIOS. Or are we?
I was thinking of replacing the default scan_bus method with one that calls the default method for most devices and inserts the non-existent device information into the table at the appropriate time.
Has anyone been successful at this sort of thing?
Cheers,
