What was the actual crash?  The mere fact that we made a config read fail
should not cause a crash.  We might erroneously prevent access to VF
devices, but it shouldn't crash.  So maybe there's another bug elsewhere
that we should fix first.

I'm guessing other drivers have the same issue, e.g.,
altera_pcie_valid_config(), xilinx_pcie_valid_device().

Can you look through them and fix them all at once?
