On failure pcie_capability_read_dword() sets it's last parameter, val to 0. However, with Patch 12/12, it is possible that val is set to ~0 on failure. This would introduce a bug because (x & x) == (~0 & x). Since ~0 is an invalid value here, Add an extra check for ~0 to the if condition to ensure success.
