Yes, I wanted to separate them because of the Fixes tag.

I'll change it too. There was just so much to cleanup I started to miss 
things even this obvious :-(.

Also, I was not at all sure if that read from LNKCTL is really trying to 
achieve. The comment sounds like it's trying to ensure the dev is in L0
but why it cares? These drivers do so odd things :-).

Yes, but I'll put that into 1/7 since it's related to the change made 
there.
