After dwelling on this for a while, I'm thinking that it may re-introduce
the issue fixed by commit f5eff5591b8f ("PCI: pciehp: Fix AB-BA deadlock
between reset_lock and device_lock"):
Looking at the second and third stack trace in its commit message,
down_write(reset_lock) in pciehp_reset_slot() is basically equivalent
to synchronize_irq() and we're holding device_lock() at that point,
hindering progress of pciehp_ist().
So I think I have guided you in the wrong direction and I apologize
for that.
However it seems to me that this should be solvable with the small
patch below. Am I missing something?
@Joel Mathew Thomas, could you give the below patch a spin and see
if it helps?
Thanks!
