Here is 'the device' referring to the PF or VF?
and how would the device use this information?

'req_len' is kind of redundant. Looks all the callers use sizeof(req).

pds_vfio_client_adminq_cmd() has the exactly same mechanism
with 5s timeout and 1ms poll interval when FASTPOLL is set.
probably you can introduce another flag to indicate retry on
-EAGAIN and then handle it fully in pds_vfio_client_adminq_cmd()?

The logic in this function is very confusing.
PDS_LM_CMD_SUSPEND has a completion record:
+struct pds_lm_suspend_comp {
+ u8 status;
+ u8 rsvd;
+ __le16 comp_index;
+ union {
+ __le64 state_size;
+ u8 rsvd2[11];
+ } __packed;
+ u8 color;
Presumably this function can look at the completion record to know whether
the suspend request succeeds.
Why do you require another wait_device step to query the suspend status?
and I have another question. Is it correct to hard-code the 5s timeout in
the kernel w/o any input from the VMM? Note the guest has been stopped
at this point then very likely the 5s timeout will kill any reasonable SLA which
CSPs try to reach hard.
Ideally the VMM has an estimation how long a VM can be paused based on
SLA, to-be-migrated state size, available network bandwidth, etc. and that
hint should be passed to the kernel so any state transition which may violate
that expectation can fail quickly to break the migration process and put the
VM back to the running state.
Jason/Shameer, is there similar concern in mlx/hisilicon drivers?

'resume' is also in the blackout phase when the guest is not running.
So presumably FAST_POLL should be set otherwise the max 256ms
poll interval (PDSC_ADMINQ_MAX_POLL_INTERVAL) is really inefficient.

I'm not sure whether P2P is actually supported here. By definition
P2P means the device is stopped but still responds to p2p request
from other devices. If you look at mlx example it uses different
cmds between RUNNING->RUNNING_P2P and RUNNING_P2P->STOP.
But in your case seems you simply move what is required in STOP
into P2P. Probably you can just remove the support of P2P like
hisilicon does.

not used. Looks most comp structures are defined w/o an user
except struct pds_lm_status_comp.
