I think __pci_bus_assign_resources() should be testing dev->hdr_type
instead of dev->class.  The connection between "Header Type" and the
layout of the rest of the header is very explicit (PCI r3.0 sec 6.1,
PCIe r4.0 sec 7.5.1.1.9), and the reason for the switch statement in
__pci_bus_assign_resources() is precisely to determine which layout to
use.

There are several other uses of dev->class in setup-bus.c that I think
should also be changed to use dev->hdr_type.

If we make these changes in setup-bus.c, I suspect the class code you
assign won't matter too much.  There are a few other tests of the
class code to figure out whether to leave certain things untouched.
These seem a little hacky to me, but we're probably stuck with them
for now, so you should look and see whether they apply to your
situation.

It is definitely not mandatory for a host bridge to have a type 1
header.  I'm not even sure that would make sense: the "Primary Bus
Number" would not apply to a host bridge (since a host bridge's
primary bus is some sort of CPU bus, not a PCI bus), and a type 1
device cannot perform address translation between its primary and
secondary buses, while a host bridge can.

A Root Port is a type 1 device where the primary bus is logically
internal to the Root Complex.  A host bridge bridges from the CPU bus
to that internal bus and might perform address translation.  The Root
Port must be a PCI device.  A host bridge, being a bridge *to* the PCI
domain, is not itself generally programmed via PCI config space and
might not even be visible as a device in PCI config space.
