This patch resolves potential issues when accessing PCI Express
capability structures. The makeup of Express' capability structure
varies substantially between v1 and v2:

PCI Express 1.0 and 1.1 base neither requires the endpoint to
implement the entire PCIe capability structure nor specifies
default values of registers that are not implemented by the
device. Its capability version is 1.

PCIe 1.1 Capability Structure Expansion ECN, PCIe 2.0, 2.1, and
3.0 added additional registers to the structure and require all
registers to be either implemented or hardwired to 0. Their PCIe
capability version is 2.

Due to the differences in the capability structures, code dealing with
capability features must be careful not to access the additional
registers introduced with v2 unless the device is specifically known to
be a v2 capable device. Otherwise, attempts to access non-existant
registers will occur. This is a subtle issue that is hard to track down
when it occurs (and it has - see commit 864d296cf94).

To try and help mitigate such occurrances, this patch introduces
pci_pcie_cap2() which is similar to pci_pcie_cap() but also checks
that the PCIe capability version is>= 2. pci_pcie_cap2() should be
used for qualifying PCIe capability features introduced after v1.

Suggested by Don Dutile.

Acked by him too!
... except one nit...

I would change the comment "is a PCIe v2 feature" to "is a PCIe cap v2 list feature"
so no one confuses spec version with a specific cap-struct version.

but I wouldn't hold up this patch for this nit.
