Good point.  So now the wait duration hinges on the link speed
rather than reset versus resume.

Before ac91e6980563 (which went into v6.3-rc1), the wait duration
after a Secondary Bus Reset and a DPC-induced Hot Reset was
essentially zero.  And the Ponte Vecchio cards which necessitated
ac91e6980563 are usually plugged into servers whose Root Ports
support link speeds > 5 GT/s.  So the risk of breaking anything
with this change seems small.

The reason why Mika is waiting only 1 second in the <= 5 GT/s case
is that we don't check for the link to become active for these slower
link speeds.  That's because Link Active Reporting is only mandatory
if the port is hotplug-capable or supports link speeds > 5 GT/s.
Otherwise it's optional (PCIe r6.0.1 sec 7.5.3.6).

It would be user-unfriendly to pause for 60 sec if the device does
not come back after reset or resume (e.g. because it was removed)
and the fact that the link is up is an indication that the device
is present, but may just need a little more time to respond to
Configuration Space Requests.

We *could* afford the longer wait duration in the <= 5 GT/s case
as well by checking if Link Active Reporting is supported and further
checking if the link came up after the 100 ms delay prescribed by
PCIe r6.0 sec 6.6.1.  Should Link Active Reporting *not* be supported,
we'd have to retain the shorter wait duration limit of 1 sec.

This optimization opportunity for the <= 5 GT/s case does not have
to be addressed in this patch.  It could be added later on if it
turns out that users do plug cards such as Ponte Vecchio into older
Gen1/Gen2 Downstream Ports.  (Unless Mika wants to perfect it right
now.)

Thanks,

Lukas
