I think this is the firmware's job but it doesn't always do it.  Updating
the firmware may or may not help.  We try to fix this up on startup by
walking the device tree and initializing all the cache line size registers,
but I notice that we don't do it for subordinate bridges, only for their
child devices.

You might try something like this (untested):
