: My only complaint about this is that if no device is present in the
: slot, won't you just get all bits set in whatever you read?  If so,
: the headertype check should be better bounded.

hdrtype would be 0xff.  0xff & 0x7f is 0x7f, which is greater than 2.
What would the problem be?  The only valid header types are 0, 1, and
2 (at least the only ones that we understand).  Technically, if it is
a header type we don't know, we're supposed to disable the device in
the command register too.
