The 6302bf3ef78d commit fixes PCI bridge's PME flag which introduces the
configuration of PCI_EXP_RTCTL register (which wasn't used before). So,
yes, PCI_EXP_RTCTL conf was flawed since 8a3ebd8de328 but the infinite
interrupt loop happens only since that 6302bf3ef78d has fixed this PME
flag bug.
I chose to use 6302bf3ef78d because it was the one commit triggering
the bug during my bisect process, but yes maybe using the commit that
introduced (even if it was silently) the problem makes more sense.
So if you want I can do a v3 with this Fixes tag modification.
