No, the device can not work, because some pcie tlp packets will be discarded.
Sorry for my poor English.

Exactly, the device's mps will never larger than its parent's. That's unexpected, so we leave it.

OK, will do.

We just to adjust the device's mps to make the device can work, not for an
optimal mps.
