"89H32H8G3-YC" was enough to find a link to "89H32H8G3 Device Errata
(Rev YC)", so that's good.  Unfortunately, it requires an account and
"secure access", which IDT declined to give me, isn't so good.

You quoted the errata text previously, can you just include it
directly here, please?

We need a brief justification for the ACS fiddling, since it isn't
mentioned in the errata suggested workaround.

The errata text [1] says that Windows already implements this
workaround.  I doubt that Windows includes a workaround specifically
for this chip.

I suspect instead that Windows does something slightly different in
enumeration that happens to avoid the problem.  Maybe it always does a
config write before the first config read.  Maybe there's something
else, like always leaving ACS SV off while enumerating.  Can you trace
a Windows boot in a VM that contains an IDT switch and figure out what
they're doing?

This just doesn't feel right.  Presumably IDT tested the workaround,
and if the workaround required ACS twiddling, they would have
mentioned that in the errata.

These version notes are useful during development, but please put them
after the "--" line so they don't become part of the changelog when I
merge the patch.

Patch is malformed and doesn't apply.  Maybe wrapped lines?

Looks like this line is too long.  It should fit in 80 columns after
the patch is applied.
