s/in found in/in/ (or "found in" if you prefer)

Wrap so help text fits in 80 columns when for "make menuconfig".

I asked about this before [1] but didn't finish the conversation.  My
main point is that I think "Completion Request" is a misnomer.
There's a "Configuration Request" and a "Completion," but no such
thing as a "Completion Request."

Based on your previous response, I think this should say something
like "respond to config requests with Request Retry Status (RRS) until
we're prepared to handle them."

And I assume this means the endpoint will accept config requests and
handle them normally instead of responding with RRS.

Strictly speaking this is a different condition than "the link is up"
because the link must be up in order to even receive a config request.
The purpose of RRS is for devices that need more initialization time
after the link is up before they can respond to config requests.

The fact that the hardware provides this bit makes me think the
designer anticipated that the link might come up before the rest of
the device is fully initialized.
