This patch set introduces a PCI-X / PCI-Express read byte count control interface. Instead of letting every driver to directly read/write to PCI config space for that, an interface is provided. The interface functions then can be used for quirks since some PCI bridges require that read byte count values are set by the BIOS and left unchanged by device drivers.
