+This fixes a boot hang observed when the bootloader
+already enabled the PCIe link for it's own use. The
+fundamental problem is that Freescale forgot to wire
+up the core reset, so software doesn't have a sane way
+to get the core into a defined state.
+
+According to the DW PCIe core reference manual configuration
+of the core may only happen when the LTSSM is disabled, so
+this is one of the first things we need to do. Apparently
+this isn't safe to do when the LTSSM is in any other state
+than "detect" as we observe an instant machine hang when
+trying to do so while the link is already up.
+
+As a workaround force LTSSM into detect state right before
+hitting the disable switch.
