Applied to pci/enumeration for v4.11 as follows, thanks!
I added a check for PCIe, so we don't have to rely on
pcie_capability_read_dword() doing the right thing for PCI and PCI-X
devices. I think pcie_capability_read_dword() would set dev_cap to zero
and return zero, which would be safe, but I don't the reader should have to
do that much analysis to figure it out.

PCI: Enable PCIe Extended Tags if supported
Every PCIe device can generate 5-bit transaction Tags, which allow up to 32
concurrent requests. Some devices can generate 8-bit Extended Tags, which
allow up to 256 concurrent requests.
Per the ECN mentioned below, all PCIe Receivers are expected to support
Extended Tags, so devices are allowed (but not required) to enable them by
default.
If a device supports Extended Tags but does not enable them by default,
enable them. This allows the device to have up to 256 outstanding
transactions at a time, which may improve performance.
