typo - just wants a single underscore.

no need for the !! when assigning to a boolean.

No need for either pair of inner braces.

Same as above.

Seems like the structure is a bit odd.  Why not:

	for (;;) {
		pcie_capability_read_word(pdev, PCI_EXP_LNKSTA, &lnk_status);
		if ((lnk_status & PCI_EXP_LNKSTA_DLLLA) == active)
			return true;
		if (timeout <= 0)
			break;
		timeout -= 10;
	}
