Please check the following snippet of code (from portdrv_core.c).

IIUC, pcie_device_init() will not be called if PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_DPC is
not set in capabilities. Your change in portdrv_core.c already
selectively enables the PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_DPC service based on
native_dpc value.

So IMO, adding native_dpc check in dpc_probe() is redundant.

int pcie_port_device_register(struct pci_dev *dev)
	/* Allocate child services if any */
	status = -ENODEV;
	nr_service = 0;
	for (i = 0; i < PCIE_PORT_DEVICE_MAXSERVICES; i++) {
		int service = 1 << i;
		if (!(capabilities & service))
			continue;
		if (!pcie_device_init(dev, service, irqs[i]))
			nr_service++;
	}
