We can't use cra_write() to set PCI_EXP_LNKCTL_RL bit. We can use
pci_bus_find_capability() and pci_bus_read_config_word() with struct
pci_bus instead.
But this only can be called after pci_scan_root_bus(). Found
iproc_pcie_check_link() have similar implementation.
Tested this method is working. Do you think it is okay? If yes, then I
will send in next revision.

Thanks.
