So, changing the macro from dev_err to dev_info to log the event.


But the link up not happening is an actual error and -ETIMEDOUT is being
returned. So I don't think the log severity should be changed.

Yes it is an error in the sense it is a timeout, but reporting an error because nothing is attached to a PCI slot seems a bit noisy. Please note that a similar change was made by the following commit and it also seems appropriate here ...

    PCI: tegra: Change link retry log level to debug


BTW, we check for error messages in the dmesg output and this is a new error seen as of Linux v6.0 and so this was flagged in a test. We can ignore the error, but in this case it seem more appropriate to make this a info or debug level print.
