I think you're right, but I don't think it actually *breaks* anything.

For skd devices that work correctly, there should be no problem, and
if there ever were an skd device that operated at a speed greater than
5GT/s, the PCI core would print that speed correctly instead of having
the driver print "<unknown>".

I don't think it's a good idea to have a driver artificially constrain
the speed a device operates at.  And the existing code doesn't
actually constrain anything; it only prints "<unknown>" if it doesn't
recognize it.  The probe still succeeds.  I don't see much value in
that "<unknown>".

Or am I missing an actual problem this patch causes?
