Hi Bharat,
I forgot I still have one question here:

This seems racy. What if we check, and the link is up, but the link
goes down before we actually complete the config access?
I'm suggesting that this check for the link being up might be
superfluous.
The hardware should do something reasonable with the config access if
it can't send it down the link.
