(i am sorry Dave)

I am not sure if that is the way to go.
this define make me feel uneasy,
#define   PCI_CAP_ID_MAX         PCI_CAP_ID_AF

Would it be possible to ARRAY_SIZE(pci_cap_length) instead of PCI_CAP_ID_MAX ?
Then that would grow automatically with the array. And its more clear what
is actually happening.
