The devices at each end of the link negotiate the width and speed of
the link.  This is done directly by the hardware without any help from
the OS.

The OS can read the current link state (Current Link Speed and
Negotiated Link Width, both in the Link Status register).  The OS has
very little control over that state.  It can't directly restore the
state because the hardware has to negotiate a width & speed that
result in reliable operation.

As far as I'm aware, there is no generic PCIe way for the OS to
influence the link width or speed.  If the GPU driver needs to do
that, it would be via some device-specific mechanism.

  1) At boot-time, the Port and the GPU hardware negotiate 8.0 GT/s
     without OS/driver intervention.

  2) Some mechanism reduces link speed to 2.5 GT/s.  This probably
     requires driver intervention or at least some ACPI method.

  3) Suspend puts GPU into D3cold (powered off).

  4) Resume restores GPU to D0, and the Port and GPU hardware again
     negotiate 8.0 GT/s without OS/driver intervention, just like at
     initial boot.

  5) Now the driver thinks the GPU is at 2.5 GT/s but it's actually at
     8.0 GT/s.

Without knowing more about the transition to 2.5 GT/s, I can't guess
why the GPU wouldn't work after resume.  From a PCIe point of view,
the link is supposed to work and the device should be reachable
independent of the link speed.  But maybe there's some weird
dependency between the GPU and the driver here.

It sounds like things work if you return to 8.0 GT/s before suspend,
things work.  That would make sense to me because then the driver's
idea of the link state after resume would match the actual state.

But I don't see a way to deal with this in the PCI core.  The PCI core
does save and restore most of the architected config space around
suspend/resume, but since this appears to be a device-specific thing,
the PCI core would have no idea how to save/restore it.
