Could update the commit title and message body to reflect more the why 
and what for the change. One option can be:

nitro_enclaves: Set Bus Master for the NE PCI device

Enable Bus Master for the NE PCI device, according to the PCI spec
for submitting memory or I/O requests:
   Bus Master Enable ...



Please include the changelog in the commit message for the next revision(s).

+ Greg in CC, as the patches for the Nitro Enclaves kernel driver are 
first included in the char misc tree, then in the linux next and finally 
in the mainline.

I was looking if we need the reverse for this - pci_clear_master() [1] - 
on the error and remove / shutdown codebase paths, but 
pci_disable_device() seems to include the bus master disable logic [2][3].

Thanks,
