For handling the 0xff case w/o additional overhead the following is pending:

As far as I can see the VPD structure hasn't changed since it was
introduced in PCI 2.2. This was how many years ago?
Instead of adding code at least my personal objective would be
to make support for such legacy features as simple and maintainable
as possible.
