The reporting in dw_pcie_wait_for_link() is only a note in dmesg (and
the -EDTIMEDOUT return, which we're throwing away here).

We need an explanation here about why the caller of
dw_pcie_resume_noirq() doesn't need to know whether the link came up.
A short comment in the code would be useful as well.

This should be "return 0" because if "ret" was non-zero, we returned
that earlier.
