This line goes to the first.

Per code grepping, there are two kinds of cases
pci_dev_set_io_state() are called.
1. doesn't care about the return value, just set it to
pci_chnnel_io_perm_failure.
and later handling depends on dev->error_state, whatever the
value changed or not.
pciehp_unconfigure_device()
-> pci_walk_bus()
-> pci_dev_set_disconnected()
->pci_dev_set_io_state() with pci_chnnel_io_perm_failure
2. cares about the return value or the dev->error_state is changed or not. and
the later handling also depends on if the value of dev->error_state
is changed or not.
pcie_do_recovery()
->pci_walk_bus()
->report_frozen_detected()
->report_error_detected()
->pci_dev_set_io_state() with pci_channel_io_frozen.
This case, if the original value was pci_channel_io_frozen, no
need to set it again
and say it is *changed*. ----- return true only it is really changed.
pcie_do_recovery()
->pci_walk_bus()
->report_resume()
->pcI_dev_set_ios_state() with pci_channel_io_normal.
The same.
pcie_do_recovery()
->pci_walk_bus()
->report_normal_detected() with pci_channel_io_normal
The same.
I will combat the 'Truth Table' to keep the original functions
and let it return true
only when it really changes to avoid re-enter the later handling process.
Will send v7 for your review.
Thanks,
Ethan
