I guess by "niche situations", you mean the tests in
pci_bus_check_dev() and dbg_ctrl()?

I think pci_bus_check_dev() could skip the test and just use pr_dbg().
For dbg_ctrl(), we could just remove the test (and maybe reformat
those strings so they match other messages). That's a one-time thing
so I don't think two extra config reads that we might not print are a
problem.

I'd probably reorder these so you have five patches (or maybe more if
I missed something):

- remove pciehp_debug uses from pci_bus_check_dev() and dbg_ctrl()
- convert pciehp_debug to dyndbg
- convert "dev_*(&ctrl->pcie->device)" to "pci_*(ctrl->pcie->port)"
- add "Slot(%s)" to wrappers (could this be done with dev_fmt?)
- remove unused wrappers
