Oh, I don't think we're doing anything wrong with how we're displaying
them or what we're doing with what the system presents to us.  My only
point was that this is a good test-case for code which assumes that all
PCI devices lie under a PCIe root port.  At one point during development,
my code reported that device up there as

/06.3 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Xeon 5500/Core i7 Integrated Memory Controller Channel 2 Thermal Control Registers (rev 04)

but since I had that system available to test with, I spotted that problem
and made it present that device as ff:06.3 (both with and without -P).
