I was speaking about using setpci (from the pciutils package), not hacking
the kernel.
| In theory, given information about what max_lat and min_gnt each device would

It can be done in userland. If I manage to find some free time, I'll try to
write such utility and add it to pciutils.
Have a nice fortnight
