Dear Mani,
This newly added macro definition PCI_FIND_NEXT_CAP is derived from
__pci_find_next_cap_ttl. Another newly added macro definition,
PCI_FIND_NEXT_EXT_CAP, is derived from pci_find_next_ext_capability. The
first one has no return value judgment, while the second one has a
judgment return value. So, pci_bus_read_config is defined as having an
int return value.
Best regards,
Hans
