In DesignWare manual we don't see any comment that this feature is for debugging purpose only.
Even if it is meant for debugging purpose, if for some reason in an SoC, Gen3/4 linkup is failing due to equalization, and if disabling equalization is helping then IMO it is OK to do it. 
Just to re-confirm we tested one of the NVMe device on Jatson AGX Xavier RC with equalization disabled. We do see linkup works well in GEN3. As we have added this feature as a platform-quirk so only platforms that required this feature can enable it.

Snippet of lspci (from Jatson AGX Xavier RC) is given below, showing EQ is completely disabled and GEN3 linkup
