You may want to consider first doing [2], i.e. clear the DevCtl2 bits
on hot removal, and then in a separate step do [3], i.e. add support
for enabling 10 bit tags and atomic ops in the kernel.  Having that
would certainly be useful, but it's more complex than just clearing
the DevCtl2 bits on unplug.  So you may want to do the latter as a
stop-gap.
