Just one minor nit, the lines added to drivers/pci/quirks.c should
really be added to arch/x86/pci/fixup.c (or alternatively
arch/x86/kernel/quirks.c) because they only affect x86 platforms
and do not need to be compiled into the kernel on other arches.

We've had complaints in the past from people with low-memory mips
routers that the quirks needlessly occupy too much space:
