The only concern on the face of it is that it removes mutual exclusion
from the pci config write path, where a read-modifiy-write operation is
performed.

However, the PCI code already gives that guarantee (drivers/pci/access.c)
so this should be safe.

As this is fairly old code, it would be useful to know what the motivation
is behind this change.  Is it purely clean up, or is it something that
you've tested, or is this a change that you require for something else?

Thanks.
