Off-list, I've sent to Willy a patch that applies on top of those additional "bridge-related" fixes, but that reverts back the slot number of the real PCIe device to be 1 instead of 0. And in this case, the PCIe device that Willy is using is not detected. So indeed, there are some PCIe devices who really want to receive "configuration transactions" as slot 0.
