Looks sane at a quick glance.

That is a bit tricky.  Early revisions of the code I've tested with 
Isaku's q35 patches which have quite a bunch of PCI bridges (pci 
expresss upstream + down stream ports, standard dec bridge, ...) and 
even bridges behind bridges.

Isaku, what is the state of the q35 work btw?  I havn't seen any pci-e & 
q35 patches on qemu-devel for quite a while.  It also would be nice to 
have a recent version of the q35 patches to test this patch set.


I've also used with mst's patch which adds a standard pci bridge to qemu 
(patch attached) to run tests.

cheers,
   Gerd
