IMO, we should probably reformat the file and move it into src/sys/sys. (The formatting is bad; I just kept my additions in line with the code that was in there, but it should be re-done.) It also might make sense to rename it to pciio.h, although I'm not sure what that would break. The only system utility that I know of that uses the PCI ioctl interface is pciconf. And I suppose the Alpha port of XFree86 is the other thing it would "break".
