Patch was mangled by your e-mailer: it broke longer lines, causing
it to not apply.

Also, before just reverting the entire thing, could you please check
if the enclosed hack would solve it?

If so, it should be easy to add a quirk at drivers/pci/quirks.c
in order to detect the Ryzen models with a bad DMA engine that
require periodic resets, and then make cx23885 to use it.

We did similar tricks before with some broken DMA engines, at
the time we had overlay support on drivers and AMD controllers
didn't support PCI2PCI DMA transfers.

Brad,

Could you please address this issue?
