PCIe downtraining happens when both the device and PCIe port are
capable of a larger bus width or higher speed than negotiated.
Downtraining might be indicative of other problems in the system, and
identifying this from userspace is neither intuitive, nor straigh
forward.
The easiest way to detect this is with pcie_print_link_status(),
since the bottleneck is usually the link that is downtrained. It's not
a perfect solution, but it works extremely well in most cases.

Changes since v2:
- Check dev->is_virtfn flag
Changes since v1:
- Use pcie_print_link_status() instead of reimplementing logic
