Thinking about this some more, I wonder if Linux should:

  - Explicitly disable ATS for every device at enumeration-time, e.g.,
    in pci_init_capabilities(), 

  - Enable PCI_ACS_TB for every device (not just external-facing or
    untrusted ones),

  - Disable PCI_ACS_TB for the relevant devices along the path only
    when enabling ATS.

One nice thing about doing that is that the "untrusted" test would be
only in pci_enable_ats(), and we wouldn't need one in
pci_std_enable_acs().

It's possible BIOS gives us devices with ATS enabled, and this might
break them, but that seems like something we'd want to find out about.
