My fault, but not as bad as it looks. Commit e2b5a58 should have been a straight rename, but the change to pci_num_bus()==0 was intended to be part of the very next commit (d7736fbb, "[efi] Allow EFI to control PCI bus enumeration"). I suspect that I managed to screw up a git-rebase operation. That (second) commit changed the intended behaviour of PCI enumeration under EFI. Older versions of iPXE (and all versions of gPXE) perform a manual PCI enumeration via direct manipulation of the PCI registers. This matches the non-EFI behaviour, but causes multiple problems under EFI. Newer versions of iPXE allow EFI to control the process of attaching drivers to PCI devices. There's no chance of reverting this commit, since the old behaviour is demonstrably broken in multiple scenarios. What output do you get from DEBUG=efi_driver,efi_pci ?
