Bjorn,

Good catch! That is a cut-n-paste error. Here is the description from
device manual

================
Disable link training by de-asserting the LTSSM_EN bit in the PCIESS
Command Status Register (CMD_STATUS[LTSSM_EN]=0). Upon reset, the
LTSSM_EN is de-asserted automatically by hardware.

Initiate link training can be initiated by asserting LTSSM_EN bit in the
CMD_STATUS register (CMD_STATUS[LTSSM_EN]=1).
================================================

Probably it works because it is de-asserted automatically upon
reset by hardware. Let me test this and send you a patch?
