I think we should just remove it. It's broken. Nobody cares. If people want to do concurrent stuff at bootup, it should be the _other_ buses (like USB, IDE or SCSI or anything like that, that actually has operations that can delay) that end up asynchronous. And I think we could have some generic functionality for the drivers themselves to do their probing in parallel. But I think the PCI one was just a mistake.
