Since this uses the _DSD information that was introduced for compatibility
between device tree and ACPI based data, why not write the code so that
it can work for both?

Ideally this should just look up the property for pci_dev->fwnode, but I'm
not entirely sure if this works the same way on ACPI and DT today.
