Really thanks for your advice. :)

I searched the internet about the extended PCI config space and found
the link:

[Patch v2] Make PCI extended config space (MMCONFIG) a driver opt-in
http://lwn.net/Articles/263288/

And I checked the config and found the CONFIG_PCI_MMCONFIG=y. The
following string also can be observed in the dmesg:

[    1.419853] PCI: MMCONFIG for domain 0000 [bus 00-ff] at
[mem0x80000000-0x8fffffff] (base 0x80000000)
[    1.419855] PCI: MMCONFIG at [mem 0x80000000-0x8fffffff] reserved in E820

It seems the extended PCI config space is enabled. If there is
anything missed?
