Applied to pci/enumeration for v5.17, thanks, Rajat!

The app note suggests that this erratum only affects the registers at
0x234, 0x248, and 0x24c, i.e., the LTR snoop registers and the L1 SS
control registers.

Can you confirm that is true?  Byte and word accesses to other parts
of config space work correctly?

I *assume* the other parts work correctly, because if byte and word
accesses were broken, all sorts of things would not work, like
PCI_COMMAND, PCI_STATUS, searching the capability list, etc.
