It sounds like your setup is having difficulting completing config cycles timely after a secondary bus reset. I don't see right now how anything I've provided in this series is causing that. All the stack traces you've provided so far are all within virtual channel restoration. Subsequent stack traces are never the same though, so it does not appear to be permanently stuck; it's just incredibly slow. This particular capability restoration happens to require more config cycles than most other capabilities, so I'm guessing it happens to show up in your observation because of that rather than anything specific about VC. The long delays seem like a CTO should have kicked in, but maybe your hardware isn't doing it right. Your lspci says Completion Timeout configuration is not supported, so it should default to 50msec maximum, but since it's taking long enough to trigger a stuck CPU watchdog, and you appear to be getting valid data back, it doesn't look like CTO is happening.
