The PCI device may have not been bound from cold boot and be in
undefined state, or simply not yet ready for MHI operations. This
change ensures that the MHI layer is reset to initial state and
ready for MHI initialization and power up.

So, I'm curious, how does this actually work?

  From what I can see, you define SBL images.  If those get loaded by the
PBL, it doesn't happen over MHI.  PBL will not move MHI to ready state,
except in the specific instance of a fatal error.

I defined generic SBL images for flashless controller versions, but
mine is not, and so it boots directly in mission mode.


Your above change works if the device comes up straight in mission mode
(AMSS), but if it comes up in PBL, you are going to hit the timeout and
dev_warn() every time.

Ok, I thought we should get into MHI ready state, whatever the
'execution environment'... So I definitely need to take that into
consideration. thanks.

I could see where you could think that, which is why I commented. I didn't want you to run into issues later, assuming those issues are valid to you.

MHI only gets into the ready state via EEs which drive MHI. PBL famously does not drive MHI because PBL is encoded into hardware and extremely difficult to fix, so it is generally designed with the mantra of "simpler is more reliable".

Hopefully I didn't throw a wrench in things for you. Just trying to save you some pain later.
