+/*
+ * Retrain the link of a downstream PCIe port by hand if necessary.
+ *
+ * This is needed at least where a downstream port of the ASMedia ASM2824
+ * Gen 3 switch is wired to the upstream port of the Pericom PI7C9X2G304
+ * Gen 2 switch, and observed with the Delock Riser Card PCI Express x1 >
+ * 2 x PCIe x1 device, P/N 41433, plugged into the SiFive HiFive Unmatched
+ * board.
+ *
+ * In such a configuration the switches are supposed to negotiate the link
+ * speed of preferably 5.0GT/s, falling back to 2.5GT/s.  However the link
+ * continues switching between the two speeds indefinitely and the data
+ * link layer never reaches the active state, with link training reported
+ * repeatedly active ~84% of the time.  Forcing the target link speed to
+ * 2.5GT/s with the upstream ASM2824 device makes the two switches talk to
+ * each other correctly however.  And more interestingly retraining with a
+ * higher target link speed afterwards lets the two successfully negotiate
+ * 5.0GT/s.
+ *
+ * With the ASM2824 we can rely on the otherwise optional Data Link Layer
+ * Link Active status bit and in the failed link training scenario it will
+ * be off along with the Link Bandwidth Management Status indicating that
+ * hardware has changed the link speed or width in an attempt to correct
+ * unreliable link operation.  For a port that has been left unconnected
+ * both bits will be clear.  So use this information to detect the problem
+ * rather than polling the Link Training bit and watching out for flips or
+ * at least the active status.
+ *
+ * Since the exact nature of the problem isn't known and in principle this
+ * could trigger where an ASM2824 device is downstream rather upstream,
+ * apply this erratum workaround to any downstream ports as long as they
+ * support Link Active reporting and have the Link Control 2 register.
+ * Restrict the speed to 2.5GT/s then with the Target Link Speed field,
+ * request a retrain and wait 200ms for the data link to go up.
+ *
+ * If this turns out successful and we know by the Vendor:Device ID it is
+ * safe to do so, then lift the restriction, letting the devices negotiate
+ * a higher speed.  Also check for a similar 2.5GT/s speed restriction the
+ * firmware may have already arranged and lift it with ports that already
+ * report their data link being up.
+ *
+ * Return TRUE if the link has been successfully retrained, otherwise FALSE.
