[PATCH v4 0/6] PCI: dwc: Rework the error handling of dw_pcie_wait_for_link() API

From: Manivannan Sadhasivam via B4 Relay

Hi,

This series reworks the dw_pcie_wait_for_link() API to allow the callers to
detect the absence of the device on the bus and skip the failure.

Compared to v2, I've reworked the patch 2 to improve the API further and
dropped the patch 1 that got applied (hence changed the subject). I've also
modified the error code based on the feedback in v2 to return -ENODEV if device
is not detected on the bus and -ETIMEDOUT otherwise. This allows the callers to
skip the failure if device is not detected and handle error for other failure.

Testing
=======

Tested this series on Rb3Gen2 board without powering on the PCIe switch. Now the
dw_pcie_wait_for_link() API prints:

qcom-pcie 1c08000.pcie: Device not found

Instead of the previous log:

qcom-pcie 1c08000.pcie: Phy link never came up

Changes in v3:
- Dropped patch 1 that got appplied
- Reworked the error handling of dw_pcie_wait_for_link() API further
