Hi Alex-san,
On my system, hotplug slots themselves can be added, removed
and replaced with the ohter type of I/O box. The ACPI firmware
tells OS the presence of those slots using _STA method (That
is, it doesn't use 'LoadTable()' AML operator). On the other
hand, current pci_slot driver doesn't

Hi all,
This is v3 of the pci_slot patch series.
The major change is making the ACPI-PCI slot driver a Kconfig
option, as per the recommendations of others (Gary, Kenji-san).
In the process of doing so, it made sense to collapse the former
3/5 and 4/5 patches into a single 3/4 patch. There really
