Thanks for your patch!

This causes a build failure when compile-testing, e.g. x86 allmodconfig.
Using "depends on !PCI_LOCKLESS_CONFIG" instead would avoid that,
but indeed has the disadvantage that it wouldn't complain loudly when
PCI_LOCKLESS_CONFIG would ever be enabled on ARM64...
All right, let's also wait for input from PCI maintainers. It seems both alternatives -- static_assert() and !PCI_LOCKLESS_CONFIG have their own disadvantages, maybe there is a third option.
