Hi Tomi,
   Thanks for your reply. Yes, it's safe, because PCI core has been use pdev->pm_cap to save
the pm capability offset already. And PCI core changes related this pm init code has been merged
long long ago(since year 2008). This series changes just to simplifier driver code about pm code.
It's not necessary to access pci device register to get pm cap again, drivers can use pci device pm_cap
member. and this series had no changes in PCI core. The rest of this series like for bnx2, bnx2x etc has
been tested and accepted by other subsystems.
