Thank you for testing and for catching this issue.  Much appreciated.

Makes complete sense.  Sorry for breaking things here!

I removed the changed, and also move the log level to be a warning, per:

  https://web.git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pci/pci.git/commit/?h=controller/dwc&id=c6759a967e69aba16aef0d92f43e527b112e98a5

Would this be acceptable here?

Mani, would this be acceptable to you, too?  Given that you posted the
following recently:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20250303200055.GA1881771@rocinante/T/#mab9cbd5834390d259afea056eee9a73d8c3b435f

That said, perhaps moving the log level to a debug would be better served here.
