After some more thinking, I realized this is probably not a good idea (I 
know you got it from me :-(). IIRC, this function is also called for 
RCiEPs and they do not have to implement these registers. I saw 
supported_speeds were 0 for many devices, for most to be more precise,
while developing bwctrl (none of those impacted bwctrl).

If I'm correct, that print out should trigger many times on a simple boot 
test so it should be easy to confirm.
