Commit 4d909bf1a53e ("PCI: Refactor extended capability search into
PCI_FIND_NEXT_EXT_CAP()") moved the extended capability search from the
device config accessor to the bus config accessor. The bus accessor
skips the disconnected device check, so walking the extended capability
list of a device already marked disconnected (surprise removal, AER/DPC
recovery) now issues real config reads to it. A dead device returns all
ones for the first extended capability header. That decodes as a next
pointer to the last dword of config space, so the walk keeps re-reading
that dword until its TTL expires, roughly 480 config reads per call.

Restore the device accessor so the walk stops without touching hardware
once the device is disconnected.
