Subject: [PATCH] Reduce nr of ptr derefs in drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_core.c

Here's a small patch to reduce the nr. of pointer dereferences in
drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_core.c

Benefits:
- micro speed optimization due to fewer pointer derefs
- generated code is slightly smaller
- small line length cleanup
- better readability

Please consider applying.

Just one suggestion:

In your patches I've seen a lot of kmalloc + memset calls. Perhaps you
can convert them to kzalloc? This would improve readability even more.

Thanks,

Good idea, but I think I'll do that as a seperate round of patches at
a later date. Added to my todo list. Thanks.
