I've only got REV 2.0 (nice bound edition...)
End of section 3.6.4 says:
"Multi-function devices are required to do a full decode on ad[10::08],
and only respind to the configuration cycle if they have implemented the
configuration space registers for the selected function. They are also
required to always implement function 0 in the device."
Also is says the config code will probe function zero first, and if
that doesn't exist no other functions will be checked.
