This is a good catch!

But this is a problem :(

tegra and mvebu at least do not have HW to do non-32 bit writes, so
their implementation of pci_write_config_word does the RMW internally
and will still have this same bug.

I think you have to keep the 32 bit write here, but zero the
write-one-to-clear bits :(
