Hi Keith I tried this patch on my R730 Server, but it lead to system hang after setpci, could you help check it, thanks.

This patch goes directly to the config space to make device failure occur. The success of this test is still senstive to timing, as it may disable IO memory when a driver is trying to bring it online. This can look like a permanent device failure from the driver's perspective.
