I applied the one below to for-linus for v4.9.

I did tweak the preceding patch to only share pcie_find_root_port()
inside drivers/pci -- moved the declaration from include/linux/pci.h
to drivers/pci/pci.h and moved the definition to drivers/pci/search.c.

I don't think it needs to be visible to the whole kernel.
