Yes, I miss the upstream ports and the pcie/pci capability, will check
the pcie_configure_mps() again and fix it, thanks.

I'm not very clear about this, I check the PCIe Standard, it said that:

Enable Relaxed Ordering – If this bit is set, the device is
permitted to set the Relaxed Ordering bit in the Attributes field of
transactions it initiates that do not require strong write ordering
(see Sections 2.2.6.4 and 2.4).
Default value of this bit is 1.
This bit may be hardwired to 0 if a device never sets the
Relaxed Ordering attribute in transactions it initiates as a
requester.

Is that means some platform may set the bit to 0 default but it didn't mean the hardware
couldn't support Relaxed Ordering ? if so, I need to set the bit enable if  relaxed
ordering flag is set.

If I didn't understand it correctly, I will fix it follow your opinion, thanks.
