If that is the case, then explain the before/after with Hans lspci output here:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/bb40385c-6839-484c-90b2-d6c7ecb95ba9@163.com/

His patch changes the default value of DevCtl.MPS (from 128B to 256B), but if
pci_configure_mps() can bump DevCtl.MPS to a higher value, his patch should not
be needed, since the EP (an NVMe SSD in his case) has DevCap.MPS 512B, and the
RC itself has DevCap.MPS 256B.

Seems like we are missing something here.


Kind regards,
