I'm trying to figure out what the difference is between these two
checks and why you have both of them:
> + if (bus->number == pcie->root_busno && devfn > 0)
> + if (bus->primary == pcie->root_busno && devfn > 0)
If I understand correctly, pcie->root_busno is the bus number of the
Root Port device (likely 00). I think the "bus->number ==
pcie->root_busno && devfn > 0" check means that the Root Port, e.g.,
00:00.0, is the only device allowed on bus 00. Often a Root Complex
contains several Root Ports and other integrated devices that
typically are on bus 00. But in your case, I think you're saying
there is only the single Root Port and no other devices.
I think that first check takes care of everything on bus 00, so I'm
trying to figure out what the second check is for. Assume your Root
Port is device 00:00.0 and it is a bridge to [bus 01-ff]. Then we
have two pci_bus structs with these values:
bus->number = 00
bus->primary = 00
bus->busn_res = [bus 00-ff]
bus->number = 01
bus->primary = 00
bus->busn_res = [bus 01-ff]
Because of the first check, 00:00.0 is the only possible device on bus
00, and because of the second check, 01:00.0 is the only possible
device on bus 01. Therefore, you don't support a multifunction device
connected to the Root Port. Right?

I interpret this as meaning "the *hardware* automatically sends a
Set_Slot_Power_Limit Message." There's no mention of software doing
anything other than the configuration write.
If your hardware doesn't do that, I think it's a defect. It's fine to
work around it, but we should have a comment to that effect so people
don't copy the code to new drivers that don't need it.
It's a little strange that 7.8.9 talks about writing to this register
when all of its fields are HwInit and supposedly read-only. I had
assumed devices would use strapping or implementation-specific
registers to set the Slot Power values, but maybe some devices use
direct writes to Slot Capabilities instead.
BTW, I noticed a related lspci bug: it didn't decode the Capture Slot
Power Limit in Device Capabilities of Endpoints. I posted a fix for
that separately.
The Slot Power Limit (in Slot Capabilities) indicates how much power
the slot can supply to a downstream device. That's a function of the
platform design, so it seems like this is something you want to set
via DT or some other mechanism that knows about the platform.
Intercepting all config writes and updating it with whatever the
caller supplies doesn't sound wise. The value might be coming from
setpci or some other source with no knowledge of the platform.

That doesn't answer the question of whether another read is required.
In fact, I would argue that if MSG_DONE_STATUS_BIT is only valid when
MSG_DONE_BIT = 1, you *should* only do one read, because you want to
capture both bits simultaneously so you know they're consistent, e.g.,
status = nwl_bridge_readl(pcie, TX_PCIE_MSG);
if (status & MSG_DONE_BIT) {
if (status & MSG_DONE_STATUS_BIT)
...
}
If you read the register twice, you always have to worry about what
changes MSG_DONE_BIT, and how you guarantee that the second read
happens before MSG_DONE_BIT changes.

So are you saying that other drivers in drivers/pci/host should be
using irq_dispose_mapping(), but they aren't?
Marc, can you chime in here?

Heh, devm_*() always trips me up, sorry about that.
