Maybe the elephant in the room is why it's apparently such common
practice to need to perform a hard reset these devices outside of
virtualization scenarios...

... and even to the extent that an entire PCIe hierarchy is being reset
rather than individual devices, let alone leaf buses.

Unfortunately, if your goal is really to reset the whole switch, vfio
isn't going to help with that.  The vfio-pci driver only binds to
endpoints and a hot reset can be effected for a given endpoint, in the
presence of sibling devices which are also owned by the same user.
There's a rudimentary unit test below which implements this.

I think the reason we don't have a "reset_subordinate" attribute is
that there are a number of difficult issues in locking down an entire
hierarchy that go beyond what vfio does in validating the user's proof
of ownership for affected endpoints on a leaf bus.  Thanks,
