Is this any different from all the other .map_bus() implementations
that return NULL when the link is down?

  cdns_pci_map_bus()
  dw_pcie_other_conf_map_bus()
  nwl_pcie_map_bus() (see nwl_pcie_valid_device())
  xilinx_pcie_map_bus() (see xilinx_pcie_valid_device())

If you can implement this the same way, i.e., using
brcm_pcie_link_up(), it would be nice.
