That documentation is poorly worded. A reset doesn't make the
contents of config space "random," but of course it sets config space
registers to their initialization values, including things like the
device BARs. After a reset, the device BARs are zero, so it won't
respond at the address we expect, and I'm sure that's what's causing
the external abort.
So I guess we *do* need to save the state before the reset and restore
it (either that or enumerate the device from scratch just like we
would if it had been hot-added). I'm not really thrilled with trying
to save the state after the device has already reported an error. I'd
rather do it earlier, maybe during enumeration, like in
pci_init_capabilities(). But I don't understand all the subtleties of
dev->state_saved, so that requires some legwork.
I don't think we should set INTX_DISABLE; the reset will make whatever
we do with it irrelevant anyway.
Remind me why the pci_cfg_access_lock()?
