One thing I thought about, but which is likely undoable in practice: There are only about 800 files which use any of the #defines in pci_ids.h, but more than 3000 files include pci.h directly or indirectly. Making those 800 include pci_ids.h directly and removing it from pci.h could speed up compilation of the other 2200.
