Oh, I see, yes, function > 7 gets described as slot >0.
I think this is what I missed.
Hmm, it'd pretty confusing. Should we fix this,
pass devfn all over?

I now understand what the code does, it just needs
a good comment that explains that at the moment
slot encodes the high bits of the device id.

Also, let's replace pcie_cap_is_ari_enabled
with an inline that does all the relevant logic
E.g.

/* With PCI Express Endpoints, there's a single device behind
   each downstream port bus, and bits 3:7 of the function number get
   encoded in the slot number (the Express spec calls it the Device
   Number). This allows > 8 functions, but
   these extended functions are only accessible when the
   Alternative routing-ID Interpretation (ARI)
   capability is enabled in the downstream port. With that capability
   disabled the port enforces the Device Number field being 0.*/
static inline
bool pcie_check_slot(PCIDevice *dev)
{
        return !pci_is_express(dev) || !slot ||
                pcie_cap_get_type(dev) != PCI_EXP_TYPE_DOWNSTREAM ||
                (pci_get_long(dev->config + dev->exp.exp_cap + PCI_EXP_DEVCTL2) 
&
                PCI_EXP_DEVCTL2_ARI);
}

It should? Where does it say so?

info pci, maybe others (firmware path?)

But at least we learned to deny hotplug attempts for functions > 0...

It's probably just a matter of figuring out what works with acpi.
Express has a native hotplug which likely works ok already ...
