BTW, rather than assume the rest of the dword is empty, we could just
check each dword instead of each byte, something like

uint32_t *dword_used = &pdev->used[PCI_CONFIG_HEADER_SIZE];

for (i = PCI_CONFIG_HEADER_SIZE; i < config_size; i +=4, dword_used++) {
    if (*dword_used) {
        offset = i + 4;
    } else if (i - offset + 4 >= size) {
        return offset;
    }
}

It also occurs to me that this function is broken for PCIe devices as we
should stop at PCI_CONFIG_SPACE_SIZE instead of config_size.  There
should be a separate allocator for extended config space, or a flag to
this function to indicate standard or extended.  Thanks,
