[PATCH] PCI: enable extended tags support for PCIe endpoints

Each PCIe device can issue up to 32 transactions at a time by default.
Each transaction is tracked by a tag number on the bus. 32 outstanding
transactions is not enough for some performance critical applications
especially when a lot of small sized frames are transmitted.

Extended tags support increases this number to 256. Devices not
supporting extended tags tie-off this field to 0. According to ECN, it
is safe to enable this feature for all PCIe endpoints.
