Subject: [PATCH 1/9] PCI: sysfs: Export available PCIe bandwidth

For certain bandwidth-critical devices (e.g. multi-port network cards)
it is useful to know the available bandwidth to the root complex. This
information is only available via the system log, which doesn't
account for link degradation after probing.

With a sysfs attribute, we can computes the bandwidth on-demand, and
will detect degraded links.
