This is one of the problems: reading the VF Vendor ID gets ~0 in two
cases: (1) the config read was successful (the VF Vendor ID is
actually 0xffff), and (2) the config read failed and the RC
synthesized ~0 return data.  I hoped to be able to distinguish these
with the debug patch at [2], but so far it doesn't work as I expected,
so more debug is required.

[1] is an example of another way of doing a device-specific quirk.  It
doesn't really matter whether that way works for the Kunpeng device,
because I want to avoid any of these device-specific things if
possible.
