If the user specifies pci address, we use the pci address.
If the user does not specify pci address, we will allocate whole slot for the
device.
If the pci device is hot plugged, it should be single function(hotplugging
multi function pci device is not supported now)
So, if the user wants to use multi function pci device, he should specify the
pci address.
