I think this bit needs a different configuration option
and should be disabled by default.

It seems to lock up the system if you don't have the proper
device connected.

Without this bit, I was able to confirm proper enumeration
of a PCIe bus with a USB 3.0 controller:

    00:01.0     - 16c3:abcd - Bridge device
    01:00.0    - 1b21:0612 - Mass storage controller

Unfortunately, in a quick test, the image fails to boot
without a PCIe device connected, or oddly, with a different
PCIe ethernet controller connected.

I think it's handy to have the placeholder here, but
I think you're the only person on the planet with the
right set of components to make it work at the moment.

Regards,


Eric
