Ugh.  Is """ some sort of markup?  There's a nice English convention
of indenting block quotes a couple spaces with no quote marks at all
that would work nicely here.

I don't know why we care *how long* EPF callbacks might take.  

>From the TRM quote, it sounds like the important thing is that you
don't want the link to train before dw_pcie_ep_linkdown() calls
dw_pcie_ep_init_non_sticky_registers(), which looks like it programs
registers through DBI.

Maybe you also want to allow the EFP ->link_down() callbacks to also
program things via DBI before link training?  But I don't think the
amount of time they take is relevant.  If you need to do *anything*
via DBI before the link trains, you have to prevent training until
you're finished with DBI.
