| struct extent	*pa_ioex;
| struct extent	*pa_memex;
| struct extent	*pa_pmemex;
| struct extent	*pa_busex;

This is a lot of work to make the bus configure manually. Looks like OpenBSD
has a lot more code (integrated this patch and more) in

    http://bxr.su/OpenBSD/sys/dev/pci/ppb.c

to do this... Our bus configuration code is in pciconf.c and looks quite
different.
