which happens because...?

That's -ENODEV. As far as I can tell, that only gets printed if the
device doesn't have a wired interrupt (the interrupt pin field in config
space read as zero).

So that's beningn, but annoying?

Surely we can clean that up.

Your root complex has a device_node if it is described in DT.

Is the problem that this doesn't work with ACPI?

Thanks,
Mark.
