Again, I might be missing something because I haven't actually tried
implementing any of this, but at least from the theoretical point of
view I don't see how keeping them separate would make things simpler:
if anything, it seems to me like it would make them more complicated
for the calling code because now you have to worry about the PCI
address extensions *in addition* to the PCI address itself.
