The "ACPI PCI Slot Detection ("pci_slot")" sub-driver may be compiled as a module. Kernel modules are instantiated somewhat randomly - the order in which they are linked as the kernel as built - thus if there are any dependencies on the ordering of attaching sub-drivers, they can not be effectively dealt with. This patch series resolves any potential sequencing inter-dependencies by converting "pci_slot" sub-driver's functionality to being only supported as statically built-in to the kernel. Inter-dependencies can then be effectively handled by explicitly sequencing the addition of such functionality.
