Thanks for your suggestion. You are right, I have tested this can work as well.
So, I can remove those 2 PCI_FIXUP* in the driver.

This fixup is different from pci_set_bus_speed(). This fixup is to set
the retrain bit in the LNKCTL register if the host can support higher
speed than current speed, this is required by our hardware. But,
pci_set_bus_speed() is just read the LNKCAP and LNKSTA registers and
store in data structure.

Yes, some host drivers have similar code as well. Some host controller
have the BAR configuration enabled, but it doesn't fit to kernel
resources. Example the BAR is 64-bit, but the processor is 32-bit. It
will fail at the host driver probing stage.

pci 0000:00:00.0: BAR 0: [mem 0x00000000-0xffffffff 64bit pref] has
bogus alignment
