dmi_name_in_vendors is relatively expensive, so the order of these two
should be swapped, at least:
if (parent->pcie_type == PCI_EXP_TYPE_DOWNSTREAM&&
!dmi_name_in_vendors("ftServer"))
Plus, this gets called for every PCI bridge. We should be caching it
somewhere, so it's only called once.
Then i recommend a dmi_name_in_vendors() check at init; stick result in
global (or local static), and then it's not exec'd on each bridge, just
a simple flag check.
If that's the case, I'd re-cast my vote for putting the code in pci_quirks
with an export, so it is tracked as a quirk. that may get messy
wrt other arches though (the export in common code; not sure if quirks is
included on all arches).
