Hope is never a good idea when dealing with hardware :(  PCIe already
requires no addressing limitations, and programming interface specs
like NVMe double down on that.  But at least one big hyperscaler still
managed to build such a device.

Also even if the periphal device is not addressing limited, the root
port or interconnect might still be, we've seen quite a lot of that.
