Pre-emphasis level 3 is the maximum pre-emphasis level that the source supports.

This interpretation fails Link Layer compliance test 400.3.1.15 step 17 according to the following Fail condition: TRAINING_LANEx_SET.MAX_PRE-EMPHASIS_REACHED = 1 (check all active lanes) and the Source DUT supports pre-emphasis level 3 (9.5db).

Hmm. I guess that's correct. The spec doesn't say anything about
per-vswing pre-emphasis when talking about the 'max reached' bit.

We're going to have to change this for all platforms.

Also we need to update the code to pick the correct swing/pre-emphasis
when we can't do what is being requested.

The spec says:
"When the combination of the requested pre-emphasis level and voltage
 swing exceeds the capability of a DPTX, the DPTX shall set the pre-emphasis
 level according to the request and use the highest voltage swing it can
 output with the given pre-emphasis level."
and
"When a DPTX reads a request beyond the limits of this Standard, the
 DPTX shall set the pre-emphasis level according to the request and set
 the highest voltage swing level it can output with the given pre-emphasis
 level. If a DPTX is requested for 9.5dB of pre-emphasis level (may be 
 supported for a DPTX) and cannot support that level, it shall set the
 pre-emphasis level to the next highest level, 6dB."
