da56a1bfbab5 appeared in v6.5-rc1, so we should definitely fix this
before v6.5.

Based on the conversation here, I applied this to for-linus for v6.5.

I looked for Bjorn A's report but couldn't find it; I'd like to
include the URL if there is one. I did add the reports from Fabio
Estevam, Xiaolei Wang, and Jon Hunter (Fabio and Xiaolei even included
patches).

Current commit log, corrections/additions welcome:

This reverts commit da56a1bfbab55189595e588f1d984bdfb5cf5924.

Bjorn Andersson, Fabio Estevam, Xiaolei Wang, and Jon Hunter reported that
da56a1bfbab5 ("PCI: dwc: Wait for link up only if link is started") broke
controller probing by returning an error in case the link does not come up
during host initialisation, e.g., when the slot is empty.

As explained in commit 886a9c134755 ("PCI: dwc: Move link handling into
common code") and as indicated by the comment "Ignore errors, the link may
come up later" in the code, waiting for link up and ignoring errors is the
intended behaviour:

Let's standardize this to succeed as there are usecases where devices
(and the link) appear later even without hotplug. For example, a
reconfigured FPGA device.

Reverting the offending commit specifically fixes a regression on Qualcomm
platforms like the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s which no longer reach the
interconnect sync state if a slot does not have a device populated (e.g. an
optional modem).

Note that enabling asynchronous probing by default as was done for Qualcomm
platforms by commit c0e1eb441b1d ("PCI: qcom: Enable async probe by
default"), should take care of any related boot time concerns.

Finally, note that the intel-gw driver is the only driver currently not
providing a .start_link() callback and instead starts the link in its
.host_init() callback, which may avoid an additional one-second timeout
during probe by making the link-up wait conditional. If anyone cares, that
can be done in a follow-up patch with a proper motivation.
