I don't see anywhere that you're automatically enabling this for your
platform, so presumably you're expecting users to determine on their
own that they have a performance problem and hoping that they'll figure
out that they need to use this option to resolve it. The first irate
question you'll get back is why doesn't this happen automatically?

This should be a separate patch, there's no mention of this part of the
change at all in the commitlog. Also, pci_resource_page_aligned is
only set if we use the magic wildcards to set alignment for all
devices, it's not set if we use a specific seg:bus:dev.fn. That's
not consistent. Can't we make use of the STARTALIGN flag for this or
did that get removed when resources were assigned?
The test itself is not entirely reassuring, I'd like some positive
indication that the device has been aligned, not simply that it should
have been and the start alignment appears that it might have happened.
Apparently you don't trust pci_resources_page_aligned either since you
still test the start alignment.

I'm not seeing why this shouldn't have been static since you're
providing a function that tests it, there shouldn't really be any
external consumers.
