Is there a similar API available for older kernels. pci_reset_function() has been around for quite a while, but it has the limitation that it will only do a bus reset if there are no other reset mechanisms available and the bus only hosts a single device. Otherwise, no, there's no API I'm aware of that would be available on older kernels, which is why I created the bus/slot reset interfaces we have today on newer kernels.
