I'm not too keen on the current state of this patch. Firstly, I'd really
like to see the PROBE_ONLY case addressed at the same time as this port
(Lorenzo and Suravee are working on this). Secondly, the hack to put
pci_sys_data as the first member of gen_pci is ugly at best and probably
makes it difficult to support MSIs on ARM.
