PCIe 5.0 page 764 recommends using Supported Link Speeds Vector in Link
Capabilities 2 register and that's what pcie_get_speed_cap() is doing.

However, we can avoid figuring the speed altogether by checking the
dev->link_active_reporting instead because that needs to be implemented
by all Downstream Ports that supports speeds > 5 GT/s (PCIe 5.0 page 735).
