[PATCH v9 5/5] PCI: of: Remove max-link-speed generation validation

[Hans Zhang <18255117159@163.com>]

The of_pci_get_max_link_speed() function currently validates the
"max-link-speed" DT property to be in the range 1..4 (Gen1..Gen4).
This imposes a maintenance burden because each new PCIe generation
would require updating this validation.

Remove the range check so the function returns the raw property value
(or a negative error code if the property is missing or malformed).
Callers must now validate the returned speed against the range they
support. A subsequent patch adds such validation to the DWC driver,
which is the primary user of this function.

Removing the validation from this common function allows future PCIe
generations to be supported without modifying drivers/pci/of.c.
