Looking at this again I'm not sure why you need any modifications to
acpi_find_matched_drhd_unit. If the virtual function is an extended
function pdev->bus should be equal to pdev->info.physfn.bus, in which
case the already existing is_extfn check will already DTRT?

Ie: an extended VF should always have the same bus as the PF it
belongs to, unless I'm missing something.
