rpci: Use pci_dev struct pointer to avoid API breaks
The pci_dev structure is never meant to be used as is, but always as a pointer. By using the struct itself in undo_pci_write_data, we are risking data corruption, or buffer overflows if the structure size changes. This is especially apparent on my system where flashrom segfaults because I compile it with pciutils 3.3.0 and I run it on a system with pciutils 3.5.2. The struture size is different and causes a struct with the wrong size to be sent to the library, with invalid internal field values. This has been discovered and discussed in Change ID 18925 [1] [1] https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/18925/ Change-Id: Icde2e587992ba964d4ff92c33aa659850ba06298 Signed-off-by: Youness Alaoui <kakaroto@kakaroto.homelinux.net> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/20784 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Nico Huber <nico.h@gmx.de>
