Stefan: I added you to this email thread, maybe you remember some
details on this patch from your previous life.

I would say some, not all.

DWC PCI keystone is likely the same, however from a quick investigation
other PCI fault handler do not touch any user memory, so likely not
affected by the same issue.

Yes, it is.

Just a short preamble, I'm not 100% sure about the actual details, we
have a patch identical (but independent) to this one in our kernel tree
since years. I found this one in the NXP i.MX vendor kernel and decided
to submit that since it was already reviewed by one of the driver
maintainer, I sent it as an RFC [0] and after it was acked-by Lucas to
me it was obvious to move forward.

My understanding is that instead of returning all ones when we timeout
reading from non-existing downstream devices we get an abort [1], if the
read was triggered from user space (I guess reading directly the memory,
using sysfs does not trigger the issue) we end up with the handler
triggering another abort while trying to read the user memory.

Maybe this is just considered a non-valid use case?
If you NXP guys have more details please speak up, see LF-228.
If we move forward probably a `Fixes: [1]` should be added to this patch.


Just slightly related, today while playing around with PCIe to answer
this email, after a suspend-resume cycle, I was able to trigger this
issue, I guess is just the imx6q_pcie_abort_handler() returning 1.
