Are you talking about CRS itself, i.e., the ability of a Root Port to
deal with Completions with Configuration Retry Request Status?  That
really shouldn't be switchable in the hardware since it's a required
feature for all PCIe devices.

Or are you talking about CRS Software Visibility, which is controlled
by a bit in the PCIe Root Control register?  That *should* be managed
by the PCI core in pci_enable_crs().  Does that generic method of
controlling it not work for this device?

It looks like maybe the latter, since the generic:

  #define  PCI_EXP_RTCTL_CRSSVE   0x0010

matches your new PCIE_RC_CFG_PCIE_ROOT_CAP_CONTROL_RC_CRS_EN_MASK.

If pci_enable_crs() doesn't work on this device, it sounds like a
hardware defect that we need to work around, but I'm not sure that
just enabling it unconditionally here is the right thing.
