Hi James,

Thanks for finding this issue and for the patch.

Is there any chance you have a PCIe analyzer and could investigate
what's going on at that level?  The bus reset should be fairly similar
to what happens on a cold boot, and obviously *that* works, so I
wonder if we can figure out what the difference here is.

If this is actually broken somehow in the hardware, can you dig up a
hardware erratum and include a URL here?

If there's any chance we could fix or work around this in the kernel,
I'd rather do that than extend this quirk to more devices.

FWIW, here's a similar report, which hasn't been resolved yet:
