Yeah, this is all pretty ugly.  Obviously the previous code in
__pci_find_next_cap_ttl() didn't need this.  My guess is that was
because the destination for the read data was always the correct type
(u8/u16/u32), but here we always use a u32 and cast it to the
appropriate type.  Maybe we can use the correct types here instead of
the casts?
