Which source tree is this patch against?  I'm looking at Linus
latest and I don't see the AMD64_* constants defined in the
same place.

Other reviewer comments:
The casting between struct pci_dev * and u64 is kind of ugly,
I presume the reason for the narrowing casts in the block of
code you moved is documented somewhere.

It looks OK as far as I can see, but I'm not looking at the same
source code, so I don't think I should add a Reviewed-by:.
