I think this and Mingchuang's patch, which is essentially identical,
are right and solves the problem for hot-remove/hot-add.  In that
scenario we call pci_configure_ltr() on the hot-added device, and
with this patch, we'll re-enable LTR on the bridge leading to the new
device before enabling LTR on the new device itself.

But don't we have a similar problem if we simply do a Fundamental
Reset on a device?  I think the reset path will restore the device's
state, including PCI_EXP_DEVCTL2, but it doesn't do anything with the
upstream bridge, does it?

So if a bridge and a device below it both have LTR enabled, can't we
have the following:

  - bridge LTR enabled
  - device LTR enabled
  - reset device, e.g., via Secondary Bus Reset
  - link goes down, bridge disables LTR
  - link comes back up, LTR disabled in both bridge and device
  - restore device state, including LTR enable
  - device sends LTR message
  - bridge reports Unsupported Request
