Yes, that's what I mean.

Check for excluded devices in indirect_read_config(), not
__indirect_read_config().

Oh.  How would you ensure that it's only called once at a time?  It
doesn't look like this is only called during early boot.
fsl_pcie_check_link() is called every time we do any config read through
the normal interface.  This is also a concern for the call to
early_read_config_dword().
