Subject: Re: [PATCH] PCI: update device mps when doing pci hotplug

Hi Bjorn and Jon,
   I'm sorry to disturb you. This patch is sent so long, but nobody seems had comment about it.
Do you have any comment with this patch?

This patch try to update device mps in following case:
1) target device under root port
   Because root port can split TLP, so target device mps greatr than root port mps is ok.
   But if root port mps greater than target device mps, it's bad, because target device cannot
   receive TLP payload size greater than its MPS. So if a target device under a root port, I think
   we should assign its mps greater than or equal root port mps.
2) target device under non root port
   We assume the target device both is a transmitter and receiver, so the safest way is to assign target
   device mps equal to its parent device.

Any comments about this patch is welcome!

Thanks!
Yijing.
