My opinion about these features.

No problem.  But, to this feature works correctly, we should have
dynamic I/O address allocation.

>> 2. multiple I/O window support (for ATA)

Ugly.  Should be rewritten.

>> 3. regular expression in CIS string matching

No problem.  It'll make easier to support longer CIS string matching
(because we can add ".*" at the tail of shortened entry).

>> 4. longer CIS string matching

No problem.  "#define CIS_MAXSTR 30" is not enough.  PAO strdup's
CIS strings.

>> 5. vendor prefix checking in "ether"

It'll be needed to avoid duplicated MAC addresses.

>> 6. attr2hex MAC address definition (for Megahertz and some
>>    ed-compatible cards)

No problem.
