    PCI: Skip MPS logic for Virtual Functions (VFs) · d2d937b7
    Myron Stowe authored
    commit 3dbe97ef upstream.
    
    PCIe r4.0, sec 9.3.5.4, "Device Control Register", shows both
    Max_Payload_Size (MPS) and Max_Read_request_Size (MRRS) to be 'RsvdP' for
    VFs.  Just prior to the table it states:
    
      "PF and VF functionality is defined in Section 7.5.3.4 except where
       noted in Table 9-16.  For VF fields marked 'RsvdP', the PF setting
       applies to the VF."
    
    All of which implies that with respect to Max_Payload_Size Supported
    (MPSS), MPS, and MRRS values, we should not be paying any attention to the
    VF's fields, but rather only to the PF's.  Only looking at the PF's fields
    also logically makes sense as it's the sole physical interface to the PCIe
    bus.
