I'm not super attached to pciehp_debug. But perhaps pciehp is one
place where it would make sense to use pci_dbg().

There are a lot of uses of ctrl_dbg() and some of them look like
they're too low-level to just convert to pci_info(), e.g., info about
every command we write to the controller. We probably don't need all
that info all the time.

But if we want to keep it, maybe we could convert it to use pci_dbg()
and the dynamic debug stuff. I'm pretty sure the dyndbg syntax is
complicated enough to enable pciehp logging specifically. Then we
could use that instead of the pciehp-specific module parameter.
