and pci_enable_bridge() already checks if it's already enabled, but
still enables mastering in that case if it isn't:

static void pci_enable_bridge(struct pci_dev *dev)
{
[...]
        if (pci_is_enabled(dev)) {
                if (!dev->is_busmaster)
                        pci_set_master(dev);
                return;
        }

so I guess due to the new check we end up with mastering disabled, and
thus the firmware can't load since that's a DMA thing?
