BTW, I meant to note that people have gone to some extreme lengths to
handle buggy / quirky RCs. Look at drivers/pci/dwc/pci-imx6.c, which
hooks all the way into the core ARM exception handling just to mask
aborts! (See imx6q_pcie_abort_handler.) And they have some patches
intended to fix crashes in 4.12-rc1 to hook synchronous aborts to return
"all 1's". But that's extremely invasive and not very precise (I don't
think that even checks the difference between PCI-induced aborts and
other system aborts?). Probably not gonna fly on ARM64 either...
