Well, if you think this is not needed (anymore), I can drop it. I just
reapplied original fix 1dc831bf53fd.

Marvell acquired Galileo Technology in the past, so it is possible that
this bad design is originated in Galileo. And maybe same for PCIe from
PCI. At least PCI vendor id for all (new) PCIe controllers is this one.

Perfect! It would help if you could provide 'lspci -nn -vv' output from
that system. In case you have very old version of lspci on that system
you could try to run it with '-xxxx' (or '-xxx') which prints hexdump
and I can parse it with local lspci.
