fatal error could be coming from anywhere let us say below RootPort..
and RP observes it and decides to take the tree down....
Is that the case Keith is talking about ?

Right, the err fatal handling removes all the devices below a bridge,
making that bridge allowed for run time d3.

Why will re-enumeration be a problem even if runtime PM is active ?
I assume that enumeration will get bridge out of D3.

That doesn't seem to be the case.

reset_link(udev, service); will initiate SBR, and which should do hot reset the bridge and bring it out of D3 !
but it seems even SBR is not doing it for you.

Although I am not sure if the EP has to be designed to reset its config space upon SBR.. even if they are, some just might not do it all correctly !

The code looks okay to me anyway.
