Subject: [PATCH v3 0/9] pci: bus and slot reset interfaces

I posted a v2 of this back in May, but nack'd it because it had issues
in cases where PCI hotplug was built as a module.  I pulled some of
the code into core pci to alleviate that and module options are being
removed from core pci hotplug and pciehp, so I think it's completely
fixed now.  Since the RFC a couple days ago I've done more testing and
added the last two patches, which tunes the delays for holding the bus
in reset and allowing initialization time after.  These are my best
interpretation of the spec, if anyone wants to adjust them, please
suggest new values and spec or hardware evidence to support it.  We
can also remove the duplicate bus reset code in AER, which is done in
the last patch.  Including my most recent description of why we need
this series below.  Thanks,

Alex

This series adds PCI bus and slot reset interfaces to the already
existing function reset interface.  I need this for two reasons, the
first is that not all devices support function level reset.  Even
some of those that we detect as supporting a PM reset on D3hot->D0
transition actually don't do any reset.  Others have no reset
capability at all.  We currently implement a secondary bus reset
escalation from the function reset path, but only when there is a
single devfn on the bus.  Drivers like vfio can have ownership of
all of the devices on a bus and should therefore have a path to
initiate a secondary bus reset with multiple devices.  This is
particularly required for use of GPUs by userspace, where none of
the predominant GPUs implement a useful function level reset.

The second reason is that even the current function reset escalating
to a secondary bus reset can cause problems with hotplug controllers.
If a root port supports PCIe HP with suprise removal, a bus reset
can trigger a presence detection change, which results in an attempt
to remove the struct device.  By having a slot reset interface, we
can involve the hotplug controllers to allow for a controlled bus
reset and avoid this spurious removal attempt.
