No, this is just because the documentation lagging behind code change,
but the code is there so it should work.

The support was MFC'ed at: Thu Jun 8 17:47:35 2006 UTC (16 months ago)
by mjacob.

Therefore, if it does not work, could you please let us know (preferably
with pciconf -lv output if you could, so we will be able to figure out
what's happening) so we can fix it?
