The additions look correct to me, and I don't object to them per se, so:

Acked-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@...gle.com>

However, I do raise my eyebrows a bit at drivers that poke around in
the PCIe capability.  I would prefer to have PCI core interfaces that
handle that instead.  But I haven't seen Jeff's changes yet.
