OK. I'll send them to you privately as replies to this mail.

The first patch (which needs a little tightening up) adds support for
accessing and printing all 4k of configuration space with the -xxx option.

The second patch (incomplete) adds support for the Express capability.
There's some stuff it doesn't decode yet. I'll be updating this patch
on Monday, I expect.

The third patch (even more incomplete) adds infrastructure for walking
and decoding extended capabilities.

himself that the war is just, and will thank God for the better sleep
he enjoys after this process of grotesque self-deception." -- Mark Twain
