This appears to be a 1:1 copy of pciehp_check_link_active(),
save for the ctrl_dbg() call.

For the sake of code-reuse, please move the function into the
PCI library drivers/pci/pci.c so that it can be used everywhere.

Note that there's another patch pending which does exactly that:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250225-qps615_v4_1-v4-7-e08633a7bdf8@oss.qualcomm.com/

So either include that patch in your series (addressing the review
feedback I sent for it and cc'ing the original submitter) or wait
for it to be respun by the original submitter.

Thanks,

Lukas
