Dear Manivannan

Thank you for your thorough review.Here are some of my clarifications and questions.
Looking forward to your answer, Thank you very much.

Clarification：
Our hardware initialization did not configure the device Id and vendor Id.
Now, we can only rewrite the device Id and vendor Id in the code.

Clarification：
Sorry, this was added during the compatibility platform test. It is not needed for real devices. 
I will remove it later.

I'm not quite sure what this comment means? Indeed, our hardware doesn't support MSI-X.
We can't disable the MSI-X capability using the PCIE_NEXT_CAP_PTR register? Then which 
register is needed to disable the MSI-X capability?
