I hope developers give me some comments.

I don't really have an opinion about what happens on Linux.

The current Solaris IO domain work uses the BDF derived naming for PCI devices in domain specifications. We have been discussing using Solaris device paths (such as /pci@0,0/pci8086,3605@2/pci8086,3500@0/ pci8086,3518@2/pci108e,4836@0,1) instead, as it would simplify various parts of our implementation and administration model.
