Yes it does because, previously it would be harmless due to
if (dev->fd)
only check for fd > 0, but with this new patch applied it turns into a
real bug, since the check is now fd >= 0.
There are two potential leaks. Their patches should be separate.
This change

does not belong in the patch fixing the dir-handle leak.
I'll commit these in an hour or so.
Here's the separate patch:

Subject: [PATCH] avoid file descriptor leak when fd == 0
* src/pci.c (pciGetDevice): Initialize dev->fd to -1, not 0.
(pciFreeDevice): Close fd also when it is 0.
