Thanks for the pointer, but the commit log for this patch needs to be
complete in itself.  "Unpredictable behavior" is kind of hand-wavy and
doesn't really help understand the problem.

This looks potentially racy, since hardware can set bits in
PCI_EXP_DEVSTA at any time.

The comment restates the C code, but doesn't say *why*.  The "why" is
important for ongoing maintenance.
