We also want a way to say "no hint for this type".

One way to achive this would be to have instead multiple
vendor specific capabilities, one for each of
bus#/io/mem/prefetch. 0 would mean do not reserve anything,
absence of capability would mean "no info, up to firmware".

This is a QEMU specific thing. Please name it as such.
