No since the parent may not be a PCI device. In any case we're dealing
with a device (child) that wishes to make a resource allocation; the
parent device provides methods for this and its methods store the relevent
information on the structure assigned to the device IVARS (by the parent).
The IVARS belong to the device, not the parent.
I've probably not helped much but the code is correct.
