I'm trying to figure out why we do any of this checking here.  It
seems like we could do all of it in pci_read_vpd().

Where is bin_attr->size set?  I assume this is the "attr" allocated in
pci_create_capabilities_sysfs().  I see that before your series, we
set "attr->size = dev->vpd->len" there, but after patch 3/4 of your
series, we set it to 0 there, and I don't see a place that sets it to
anything else.
