I haven't saw any error but this is potential issue because this flag
asserts only then PCI Express port initialization is completed. I guess
the initialization sequences assumes time using. Therefore the error may
appears in future revision of the boards if Core clock will grow up.
Nevertheless I do not know the time which is necessary for completeness,
so I add this just to be safe.
