Hi,
I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it:
> After 8b3517f88ff2 ("PCI: loongson: Prevent LS7A MRRS increases") backported to stable, we have received multiple regression reports including one from Debian build farm[1] that some systems failed to initialize some PCIe devices.

See Bugzilla for the full thread.
The linked Debian BTS entry have debugging details on this regression
(boot log, cpuinfo, and lspci).
Anyway, I'm adding this regression to regzbot:
#regzbot introduced: 8b3517f88ff298 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217680
#regzbot title: LS7A MRRS quirk fails to initialize PCIe devices
#regzbot link: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1035587
Thanks.

FWIW & TWIMC, a fix for this is in the works already afaics:
#regzbot monitor:

#regzbot fix: pci: loongson: Workaround MIPS firmware MRRS settings
