Replacing one ugliness (assuming there is a pci_dev for the host
bridge, and that it is at 00.0) with another (still assuming a pci_dev
and that it is host->bus->self or the first entry). I can't suggest
anything better, but maybe a little comment in the code would help
future readers.
I wish we had a real way to discover this property without the
whitelist, at least for future devices. Was there ever any interest
in a _DSM or similar interface for this?
I *am* very glad to remove a pci_get_slot() usage.

Don't you need to also remove the "pci_dev_put(root)" a few lines
below?
