Argh...

In version 3 of this series, the wait was unconditional, so it handled both
cases:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20250613124839.2197945-13-cassel@xxxxxxxxxx/

But I got a review comment from Mani:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/hmkx6vjoqshthk5rqakcyzneredcg6q45tqhnaoqvmvs36zmsk@tzd7f44qkydq/

That I should only care about the greater than 5.0 GT/s case.

Perhaps the confusion came about since the comment only mentioned one of the
two the cases specified by PCIe r6.0, sec 6.6.1.

So I think the best thing is either (on top of pci/next):

1) Make the wait unconditional and mention both cases in the comment:

 	offset = dw_pcie_find_capability(pci, PCI_CAP_ID_EXP);
 	val = dw_pcie_readw_dbi(pci, offset + PCI_EXP_LNKSTA);


Or:

1) Make the wait unconditional and mention none of the cases in the comment:

Please tell me what you prefer and I can send a patch on top of pci/next.



Also note that some drivers already do an explicit wait after PERST# has been
deasserted (in addition to the wait while PERST# is asserted), e.g.:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.16-rc4/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pci-imx6.c#L885
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.16-rc4/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-qcom.c#L294
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/v6.16-rc4/drivers/pci/controller/dwc/pcie-keembay.c#L89


Kind regards,
Niklas
