Subject: [PATCH v3 7/7] PCI: Exclude PCIe ports used for virtual links in pcie_bandwidth_available()

The USB4 spec specifies that PCIe ports that are used for tunneling
PCIe traffic over USB4 fabric will be hardcoded to advertise 2.5GT/s and
behave as a PCIe Gen1 device. The actual performance of these ports is
controlled by the fabric implementation.

Callers for pcie_bandwidth_available() will always find the PCIe ports
used for tunneling as a limiting factor potentially leading to incorrect
performance decisions.

To prevent such problems check explicitly for ports that are marked as
virtual links or as thunderbolt controllers and skip them when looking
for bandwidth limitations of the hierarchy. If the only device connected
is a port used for tunneling then report that device.

Callers to pcie_bandwidth_available() could make this change on their
own as well but then they wouldn't be able to detect other potential
speed bottlenecks from the hierarchy without duplicating
pcie_bandwidth_available() logic.
