This is NOT a platform device. It is part of a PCI device, which is NOT
a platform device. I keep having to say this.

Please use the auxbus interface instead if you want to split a PCI
device up into sub-child-devices and bind drivers to them. That is what
it was created for, and this SHOULD have been caught by the other Intel
reviewers who signed-off on this patch.

so no, I will not ack this, it is not ok at all, sorry.
