I don't think there's currently a quirk mechanism that would work for
correcting latencies, but there should be, and we could add one if we
can figure out for sure what's wrong.

I found this:

  https://www.reddit.com/r/VFIO/comments/hgk3cz/x570_pcieclassic_pci_bridge_woes/

which looks like it should be the same hardware (if you can collect a
dmesg log or "lspci -nnvv" output we could tell for sure) and is
interesting because it includes some lspci output that shows different
L1 exit latencies than what you see.

I wouldn't be totally surprised if ASUS didn't test that I211 NIC
under Linux, but I'm sure it must work well under Windows.  If you
happen to have Windows, a free trial version of AIDA64 should be able
to give us the equivalent of "lspci -vv".
