Yes I looked at it, and then promptly lost it in my inbox.

Thanks for fixing this; /proc/bus/pci semantics are definitely
different than /sys so we definitely want this.

I don't really like the new int argument to pci_mmap_fits (it's not
obvious from reading callers what that arg would do), maybe you could
make it into an enum that better describes the API or semantic being
used for the check?

Thanks,
