I think the options should be defined in both. Our hope is that all 
options will be in options(4), while you're right that pci(4) is a very 
natural place for this information.

As a solution, how about mentioning them with about a paragraph-long 
description in options(4), and having a full (whatever that is) 
description in pci(4). Oh, and of course, options(4) would cite pci(4).

Take care,

Bill
