This seems like a pretty fragile quirk since we're just hoping that the
BIOS hasn't already written this byte.  Should we at least re-read and
warn if the write didn't take?  What about using dev_flags or a device
specific reset to make this less fragile?  A device specific reset
could pick the best reset mechanism for the device, ignoring AF FLR.
Thanks,
