IIRC this #ifdef patch wasn't connected to the actual *need* for the
#ifdef, so it was very difficult to review.  I thought this function
would be infrequently used and it wasn't worth trying to sort out the
#ifdef muddle to do the caching.  But it does seem sort of pointless
to chase the capability list again here, so maybe it *is* worth
optimizing.

The PRG Response PASID Required bit is read-only, so I wonder if it
would be simpler if we just read PCI_PRI_STATUS once and save the bit
in the struct pci_dev?  We could do that in pci_enable_pri(), or if we
might need the value before that's called, we could add a
pci_pri_init() and do it there.
