Sorry I missed this before, but why is this "default y"?  From
Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst:

  The default value deliberately defaults to 'n' in order to avoid
  bloating the build. With few exceptions, new config options should
  not change this. The intent is for "make oldconfig" to add as little
  as possible to the config from release to release.

I do see that several other things in other drivers/pci/ Kconfig files
are also "default y", and we should probably change some of them.  But
I don't want to add even more unless there's a good reason.

I'm not looking for more reactions like these:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/CA+55aFzPpuHU1Nqd595SEQS=F+kXMzPs0Rba9FUgTodGxmXsgg@mail.gmail.com

Can you please update this patch to either remove the "default y" or
add the rationale for keeping it?
