Now that (I think) I fully understand the intent of the second 
condition/block one additional question occurred to me.

How is the 2nd condition even supposed to work in the current place when 
firmware has pre-arranged the 2.5GT/s resctriction? Wouldn't the link come 
up fine in that case and the quirk code is not called at all since the 
link came up successfully?


Yet another thing in this quirk code I don't like is how it can leaves the 
target speed to 2.5GT/s when the quirk fails to get the link working 
(which actually does happen in the disconnection cases because DLLLA won't 
be set so the target speed will not be restored).
