I think cpqphp has similar issues.  But I can't test it and I don't know if
anybody even uses it any more, so I'm just going to leave it alone.

I reworked the changelog because I got confused about the bridge, adapter,
board, and what was what.  Let me know if the one below is inaccurate.

I'll include this for v3.15 since it's a regression fix.

Thanks,
  Bjorn

    PCI: shpchp: Check bridge's secondary (not primary) bus speed
    
    When a new device is added below a hotplug bridge, the bridge's secondary
    bus speed and the device's bus speed must match.  The shpchp driver
    previously checked the bridge's *primary* bus speed, not the secondary bus
    speed.
    
    This caused hot-add errors like:
    
      shpchp 0000:00:03.0: Speed of bus ff and adapter 0 mismatch
    
    Check the secondary bus speed instead.
