The previous code calls vga_arbiter_add_pci_device() for every device
(every device present at boot and also every hot-added device). It
only allocates a vga_device if pdev->class is 0x0300XX.
It calls vga_arbiter_del_pci_device() for every device removal. It
does nothing unless it finds a vga_device.
This seems symmetric and reasonable to me. Did you observe a problem
with it?

Optimization is fine, but the most important thing here is to be clear
about what functional change this patch makes. As I mentioned at [1],
if this patch affects the class codes accepted, please make that clear
here.

I do not see Mario's Reviewed-by on the list. I do see Mario's
Reviewed-by [2] for a previous version, but that version added this in
pci_notify():
+ if (pdev->class != PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_VGA << 8)
+ return 0;
while this version adds:
+ if ((pdev->class >> 8) != PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_VGA)
+ return 0;
It's OK to carry a review to future versions if there are
insignificant changes, but this is a functional change that seems
significant to me. The first matches only 0x030000, while the second
discards the low eight bits so it matches 0x0300XX.
