Good idea. I'll make PCIE_EDR a def_bool that depends on PCIE_DPC &&
ACPI in v3. That still removes the user-visible knob and keeps the
rest of the code as is.

Agreed that it is dead, but only after this patch. Before it, the
check is still reachable with CONFIG_ACPI=y, CONFIG_PCIE_EDR=n and
firmware-owned DPC. Once EDR is always built with DPC on ACPI,
native_dpc can only be cleared on ACPI systems, where EDR is present.
So I'll remove the check in this patch.

Thanks for the review.
