pciexp_device: Prevent race condition with retrain link

The PCIe specification[1] describes a race condition that
can occur when using the Retrain Link bit in the Link
Control Register.

The race condition is avoided by checking the retrain link
bit in the link status register and waiting until it is
set to 0, before initiating a new link retraining.
