The only concern on the face of it is that it removes mutual exclusion from the pci config write path, where a read-modifiy-write operation is performed. However, the PCI code already gives that guarantee (drivers/pci/access.c) so this should be safe. As this is fairly old code, it would be useful to know what the motivation is behind this change. Is it purely clean up, or is it something that you've tested, or is this a change that you require for something else?
