This is not a trivial patch, it changes the behavior of the code and is
buggy.

Please read the documentationfor pci_get_device() on how to use it
properly.  It can not be used in pci_find_slot() as the reference
counting will be all wrong.  You need to just work to get rid of
pci_find_slot() and then remove the whole function to get rid of the
warning :)

What about the modules that want to use these functions?  Are they all
now gone?  If so, just drop the whole function.
