Reverted as below.  Hopefully this will make v6.6-rc1.

commit 42f5c40846f3 ("Revert "PCI: Mark NVIDIA T4 GPUs to avoid bus reset"")
Author: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@...gle.com>
Date:   Fri Sep 8 14:55:30 2023 -0500

    Revert "PCI: Mark NVIDIA T4 GPUs to avoid bus reset"
    
    This reverts commit d5af729dc2071273f14cbb94abbc60608142fd83.
    
    d5af729dc207 ("PCI: Mark NVIDIA T4 GPUs to avoid bus reset") avoided
    Secondary Bus Reset on the T4 because the reset seemed to not work when the
    T4 was directly attached to a Root Port.
    
    But NVIDIA thinks the issue is probably related to some issue with the Root
    Port, not with the T4.  The T4 provides neither PM nor FLR reset, so
    masking bus reset compromises this device for assignment scenarios.
    
    Revert d5af729dc207 as requested by Wu Zongyong.  This will leave SBR
    broken in the specific configuration Wu tested, as it was in v6.5, so Wu
    will debug that further.
