Modifying the Maximum Read Request Size to 0 (value of 128Bytes) has
massive negative ramifications on some devices.  Without knowing which
devices have this issue, do not modify from the default value when
walking the PCI-E bus.

Can you collect tested-by lines for this patch as well as add
References: lines for the bug reports?

It seems to resolve all of the issues reported.  Resending with the
tested-by and References shortly.
