PCI address set uses array to store pci addresses' assignment. It doesn't
need too much memory because the buses are allocated dynamically, one
bus only has 32 slot, and it's a tree topology. But in zpci case, fid
and uid
are flat. FID is 32-bit so that we need a 4294967295 sized array.
Don't you think it's too large?
Welp, I guess you're right. Disregard this comment then.
