And spec 1.1 amended that (in sec 7.8, not 5.8) to say that the link
registers are not required for Root Complex Integrated Endpoints.
Integrated endpoints and event collectors don't have links, so even if
some RC-integrated devices do implement link registers per spec 1.0, I
don't think there's any point in allowing access to them.
