The goal of the function is to identify a GPU (VGA) device that only
supports PM reset and return -EINVAL to indicate we can't do a function
level reset. Any other case returns -ENOTTY to indicate we don't handle
the device, try something else. This function therefore never returns 0
because it doesn't provide a reset mechanism of its own. It only blocks
the known useless reset or defers to a standard reset. Anything that's
not a class VGA display drops out through the first -ENOTTY path. I
think it's doing what I intend, but maybe you're still spotting
something wrong with my methodology. Thanks,
Alex
