Here's a small patch to reduce the nr. of pointer dereferences in
drivers/pci/hotplug/rpaphp_pci.c

Benefits:
 - micro speed optimization due to fewer pointer derefs
 - generated code should be slightly smaller
 - better readability

note: due to lack of both hardware and cross-compile tools this patch is,
      unfortunately, completely untested.

Please review and consider for inclusion.
