Anything new must be a schema. Don't create something new to workaround the problem. Extend the existing support. For this, make "linux,pci-probe-only" allowed in host bridge nodes. Yeah, there's the issue that this property sets a global flag, but I'd imagine the PCI maintainers would agree that some flags should/could be per bus. Rob

PCI-PCI Bridge properties -------------------------
The existing "linux,pci-probe-only" property applies at a system level and it is not possible to selectively convey individual host bridge's requirement w.r.t preserving the boot configuration done by the platform firmware to the kernel. "preserve-boot-config" addresses that concern and can be used to preserve the boot configuration for host bridges selectivey.
