I've just submitted a patch to address this issue. Does it work for you?
The term "proper patch" is just kernel slang for a patch which can be
applied with "git am" by the PCI maintainer, Bjorn Helgaas.
Such a patch can be generated with "git format-patch" and sent out
with "msmtp" or "git send-email".
There are some formal requirements which the patch needs to satisfy,
they are listed here:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/development-process.html
https://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=150905742808166
Never mind all these details if you do not intend to submit patches
yourself. In this case, I introduced this embarrassing mistake, so
it's my job to provide a solution if you don't want to.
Thanks for all the debugging work you have done and once again sorry
for the breakage.
Lukas
