Oh, it works fine for me with clang 19.1.7, gcc 11.3.0, gcc 12.4.0, gcc
13.3.0, gcc 14.2.0 and gcc 15.2.0, but I agree it's a bit obscure
because .class and .class_mask are specified twice; once by PCI_VDEVICE
and once explicitly.

Which compiler are you using that breaks here? I guess I might have
broken more drivers this way, so it would be great to have a setup to
reproduce your issue.

Once all the initializer are converted to named initialisation, we
should definitively drop the assignment to .class and .class_mask in
PCI_VDEVICE, but that doesn't work yet.
