 Can you accept this change I basically replaced above error message to
 option_not_supported() call.
 Do let me know your observation

Hi Sharyathi,

The patch that I already have queued is attached:

         - Fix the error message for the "dev -p" comand when run on 2.6.26
           or later kernels, which no longer have the global "pci_devices"
           list head.  The patch changes the message to show "dev: -p option
           not supported or applicable on this architecture or kernel", instead
           of the misleading "dev: no PCI devices found on this system"
message.

Thanks,
  Dave
