Subject: fixed assignment of BARs for a "hotplug" device

It was suggest to me to ask this question on the PCI hotplug list by
GregKH.

I was wondering if there are any examples on how to assign a device
fixed BARs. In my situation I've got an FPGA in an embedded system.
Other PCI devices (DSPs) expect the FPGA at a given PCI address. I
haven't found any examples or interfaces that let me do what I need
and thus suggested the following to Greg:
