Lukas Wunner fea2f9e487 PCI/ERR: Update device error_state already after reset 
[ Upstream commit 45bc82563d ]

After a Fatal Error has been reported by a device and has been recovered
through a Secondary Bus Reset, AER updates the device's error_state to
pci_channel_io_normal before invoking its driver's ->resume() callback.

By contrast, EEH updates the error_state earlier, namely after resetting
the device and before invoking its driver's ->slot_reset() callback.
Commit c58dc575f3 ("powerpc/pseries: Set error_state to
pci_channel_io_normal in eeh_report_reset()") explains in great detail
that the earlier invocation is necessitated by various drivers checking
accessibility of the device with pci_channel_offline() and avoiding
accesses if it returns true.  It returns true for any other error_state
than pci_channel_io_normal.

The device should be accessible already after reset, hence the reasoning
is that it's safe to update the error_state immediately afterwards.

This deviation between AER and EEH seems problematic because drivers
behave differently depending on which error recovery mechanism the
platform uses.  Three drivers have gone so far as to update the
error_state themselves, presumably to work around AER's behavior.

For consistency, amend AER to update the error_state at the same recovery
steps as EEH.  Drop the now unnecessary workaround from the three drivers.

Keep updating the error_state before ->resume() in case ->error_detected()
or ->mmio_enabled() return PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED, which causes
->slot_reset() to be skipped.  There are drivers doing this even for Fatal
Errors, e.g. mhi_pci_error_detected().

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
