Yeah, that was something like this (I don't even remember which Fedora
kernel version this was against.)

Mostly an FYI for the peanut gallery, but we noticed moving the cap check
to open breaks lspci being run by an unprivileged user.  It also doesn't
fix pci passthrough because QEMU opens the PCI resource files by itself
after it's already dropped all caps.

More thinking required.
