it could be possible to make a better helper.. but really there aren't
*that* many bridge drivers

suggestions ofc welcome, but I think one way or another we are going
to need to patch bridges by the time we get to adding ACPI support, so
really trivial couple line patches to the handful of bridges we have
isn't really something that worries me
