There were other discussions and patches posted, and further testing happened
since this discussion (just by looking at the dates...).

The result was:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221112114125.1637543-1-aholmes@omnom.net/
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221112114125.1637543-2-aholmes@omnom.net/

The changes for pcie2x1 in that patch make PCIe work on Linux under many
different device combinations, incl. with various combinations of devices
behind PCIe switch, etc.

That patch includes your change, too.

(The patch is not correct for pcie3, see discussion.)
