Most cases, yes. But I saw some reports that the LTSSM is stiling
changing between RCVRY_* and CFG_* when supporting customers. Especially
a buggy card I remembered, which sends some hot reset immediately after
link comes up. If it misses the first 1s wait for link check, then we
could see ltssm changing here. But better than nothing, keeps a log here
isn't a big deal I think. :)
