Ah, yes - I knew I forgot another note!

Originally the code used libpci, but since that doesn't handle malloc
failure (well, you can handle it, but only by exiting) I implemented it
directly.

libpciaccess looks much saner, so we should use that. It doesn't take
much code to implement it, though, so I don't consider switching to the
library to be very high priority.

Yep, except we shouldn't see such failures with sysfs - e.g. the likes
of libpci doesn't handle such failures.

Suggest it's not a big issue and fix it by switching to libpciaccess

Okay.

Okay.

I'll follow up with a new series with those changes.
