This has already been merged, but this isn't right, is it? We're
writing a host controller-specific pointer into the single system-wide
acpi_pci_root_ops, then passing it on to acpi_pci_root_create().

Today, I think ri->cfg->ops->pci_ops is always &pci_generic_ecam_ops,
from this path:

ri->cfg = pci_acpi_setup_ecam_mapping
cfg = pci_ecam_create(..., &pci_generic_ecam_ops)
cfg = kzalloc(...)
cfg->ops = ops # &pci_generic_ecam_ops

But we're about to merge the ECAM quirks series, which will mean it
may not be &pci_generic_ecam_ops. Even apart from the ECAM quirks, we
should avoid this pattern of putting device-specific info in a single
shared structure because it's too difficult to verify that it's
correct.
