I looked at mmconfig-shared.c again.  I had forgotten what a total
pile of crap it is.  I haven't seen so many special cases and
exceptions in a long time.

I think we probably *could* drop this early scan by converting the
pci_mmcfg_check_hostbridge() stuff into quirks (i.e., enumerate
devices without MMCONFIG and have quirks add MMCONFIG space when their
devices are found), but that would be major surgery that isn't
relevant to your project.  So just ignore my question about this.
