Not all systems have a BIOS or firmware to preconfigure the PCIE MPS prior to Linux booting. Without any firmware to pre-setup the MPS, the PCIE_BUS_DEFAULT will simply set everything to 0 (128b). This behavior causes these systems to have non-optimal MPS values. To get around this issue, change the default value of pcie_bus_config to be PCIE_BUS_SAFE. This configures all systems to use better values for the MPS, at the expense of any potential HW errata that might not like being changed.
