PCIe devices can communicate latency requirements (LTR) if they need something
more aggressive than this; otherwise 250 usec afaik falls within what doesn't
break (devices need to cope with arbitrage/etc delays anyway)
and with PCIe link power management there are delays regardless; once a PCIe link gets powered
back on the memory controller/etc also will come back online
