In our internal tree we have x86-like support for "pci=off" here.  When I
push that I can just push it as a new function to override the removed one,
so I'm happy with your change as proposed.  But perhaps it would make sense
to move the support for "pci=off" to common code, since multiple
architectures handle this the same way?
