Subject: [PATCH 12/12] atl1c: restore max-read-request-size in Device Conrol Register

in some platforms, we found the max-read-request-size in Device Control
Register is set to 0 by (BIOS?) during bootup, this will cause the
performance(throughput) very bad.
Restore it to a min-value.
register definition of REG_DEVICE_CTRL is removed, using kernel API to
access it as it's a standard pcie register.
