Does it ? From the definition of `acpi_pcib_acpi_methods', I can only
see a single pcib(4) interface being exported. Moreover, I do not seem
to be able to find any clue that would led any ACPI devices to attach
on acpi_pcib_acpi(4), neither to find how could acpi_get_flags() ends
up in acpi_pcib_read_ivar() ?
