Hi,

I got your concern.

The reason I introduce a helper to check the pci device type is in my mind we
will try our best to hide those pci detailed information from outside. The
easiest way to fix it is to check the pci_dev->hdr_type field, but this will
export some internal information from pci core to vfio-pci.

I will first make a 4-line change to fix this error. If Bjorn like the idea of
the helper, I will make up another one.
