Thanks for the script!

Sorry for the rookie question: which version do you mean by "current
upstream", the current main trunk rc?.
I am currently using for-pci-v4.3-rc1 for testing.

I do not completely understand the remark you make, are you suggesting
the firmware running on the PCIe card (embedded in a CPU on the card
itself) is acting on the content of the busnumber or do you mean x86
extension rom code acting on the busnumber.

Although it is probably irrelevant for the problem I like to solve, I
still like to understand all details.
