Maybe advk_pcie_check_pio_status() and advk_pcie_wait_pio() could be
combined so we could get the correct error status as soon as it's
available, without waiting for a timeout?

In any event, the "return PCIBIOS_SET_FAILED" needs to be fixed.  Most
callers of config read do not check for failure, but most of the ones
that do, check for "val == ~0".  Only a few check for a status of
other than PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL.
