Enable the pwrctrl driver, which is utilized to manage the power supplies
of the devices connected to the PCI slots. This ensures that the voltage
rails of the x8 PCI slots on the X1E80100 - QCP can be correctly turned
on/off if they are described under PCIe port device tree node.

PCI_PWRCTL_SLOT is a tristate symbol why be a "y" instead of an "m" i.e. compile this into the kernel instead of having it be a module ?
