OK. I tried so many things to get something working that I probably got
confused with this one :) Let me retry with this patch 1 to see if I get
the same results, which is: pci-epf-test solidly working (with the patches
I sent earlier today), and my on-going nvme epf driver working-ish (BIOS
OK, but IRQs to Linux miserably failing to be sent from EP).
