Oh, duh, of course! Sorry for being dense. What about the following?
I included the calculation as opposed to just the magic numbers to try
to make it clear how they're derived. This has the disadvantage of
truncating the result instead of rounding, but I doubt that's
significant in this context. If it is, we could use the magic numbers
and put the computation in a comment.
Another question: we currently deal in Mb/s, not MB/s. Mb/s has the
advantage of sort of corresponding to the GT/s numbers, but using MB/s
would have the advantage of smaller numbers that match the table here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express#History_and_revisions,
but I don't know what's most typical in user-facing situations.
What's better?

PCI: Add pcie_bandwidth_capable() to compute max supported link bandwidth
Add pcie_bandwidth_capable() to compute the max link bandwidth supported by
a device, based on the max link speed and width, adjusted by the encoding
overhead.
The maximum bandwidth of the link is computed as:
max_link_width * max_link_speed * (1 - encoding_overhead)
2.5 and 5.0 GT/s links use 8b/10b encoding, which reduces the raw bandwidth
available by 20%; 8.0 GT/s and faster links use 128b/130b encoding, which
reduces it by about 1.5%.
The result is in Mb/s, i.e., megabits/second, of raw bandwidth.
