no. On my TGL platform is cleared by CSME:
[Sun Oct 31 08:54:40 2021] s0ix exit: EXFWSM register: 0x00000000
[Sun Oct 31 08:54:40 2021] s0ix exit (right after sent H2ME): EXFWSM
register: 0x00000000
[Sun Oct 31 08:54:40 2021] s0ix exit(after polling): EXFWSM register:
0x00000001
[Sun Oct 31 08:54:40 2021] e1000e 0000:00:1f.6 enp0s31f6: DPG_EXIT_DONE
cleared after 130 msec

no. We need to investigate it and understand what is CSME state we hit.
Meanwhile few options:
1. use privilege flags to disable s0ix flow for problematic system
(power will increased)
ethtool --set-priv-flags enp0s31f6 s0ix-enabled off
ethtool --show-priv-flags enp0s31f6
Private flags for enp0s31f6:
s0ix-enabled: off
2. delay as you suggested - less preferable I though
3. I would like to suggest (need to check it) in case the DPG_EXIT_DONE
is 1 (and polling will be exit immediately) - let's perform enforce
settings to the CSME, before write request to CSME unconfigure the
device from s0ix :
if (er32(EXFWSM) & E1000_EXFWSM_DPG_EXIT_DONE)
mac_data |= E1000_H2ME_ENFORCE_SETTINGS;
I will update Bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=214821 with this information.
I also will need some another information regards SMB state in this case.
