I guess I could resurrect my correlation patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/f53ea40a7487e145aa1a62c347cef1814072e140.1536517047.git.lukas@wunner.de/

The last time I forward-ported it was for v5.13.  I still have that code
running on my development machine.

The problem is that it only allows lookup from tb_port to pci_dev.
I'd have to add a pointer to struct pci_dev to allow lookups in the
inverse direction.  Though I think we have such PCI companion devices
for CXL as well, so such a pointer could be useful in general.

I'm knee-deep in PCI device authentication code but could probably
dedicate a weekend to the correlation patch if there's interest?

Once we have correlation, we can expose more precise bandwidth
for virtual PCI links in sysfs.

Thanks,

Lukas
