"pcie_capability_clear_and_set_dword" is specific to the PCIe
Capability, doesn't work for arbitrary config space, and doesn't
include the word "config".

"pci_clear_and_set_config_dword" seems consistent with the arbitrary
config space accessor pattern.

At least "clear_and_set" is consistent across both.

I'm not too bothered by the difference between "clear_and_set_dword"
(for the PCIe capability) and "clear_and_set_config_dword" (for
arbitrary things).

Yes, "pcie_capability_clear_and_set_config_dword" would be a little
more consistent, but seems excessively wordy (no pun intended).

But maybe I'm missing your point, Ilpo.  If so, what would you
propose?
