Subject: Re: [PATCH 4/4] PCI/sysfs: Allow userspace to query and set device
 reset mechanism

Hello,

[...]

Aside of the sysfs interface, would this new functionality also require
anything to be overridden at boot time via passing some command-line
arguments?  Not sure how relevant such thing would be to device, but,
whatnot reset, though.

I am curious whether there would be a need for anything like that.
