The PCIe bridge spec indicates that PCIe-to-PCI bridges should handle
extended config accesses as an unsupported request.  But as in 78916b00,
we've seen that's not always the case.  This just makes us trust
PCI-core before the capabilities we find on the device.  The current
quirk in the referenced commit is for a relatively uncommon topology,
but never rule out that we couldn't have a device quirked to avoid
touching extended config space too.  Thanks,
