Subject: [PATCH net-next] net/mlx4_core: Warn if device doesn't have enough PCI bandwidth

From: Eyal Perry <eyalpe@...lanox.com>

Check if the device get enough bandwidth from the entire PCI chain to satisfy
its capabilities. This patch determines the PCIe device's bandwidth capabilities
by reading its PCIe Link Capabilities registers and then call the
pcie_get_minimum_link function to ensure that the adapter is hooked into a slot
which is capable of providing the necessary bandwidth capabilities.

We're still working on fixing/discussing the other 2 patches for
mlx4_core/mlx4_en drivers, which are under review in the list now.
meanwhile I would like to push this patch which has no conflicts with those 2.

Thanks,
Amir
