Why?  I hate PCI_VDEVICE(), it's impossible to grep for things and does
not help with readability and is pointless.  My one wish was that when I
was the PCI maintainer I would have just deleted the thing from the
kernel entirely instead of leaving it there hoping no one would use it.

I don't like these types of pointless patches, sorry.

thanks,
