The verbage/description is confusing, and
the comment doesn't match the code:
(a) no such thing as a non-PCIe VF -- all VFs
are PCIe-based.
(b) code says to return null if VF doesn't have PCIe cap,
but the code checks if pdev is VF and if PF is PCIe,
which it must be! ...

nack until a better &/or matching explanation of what
the real problem is, and what the solution is trying to do.
