When I inject a PCIE Fatal error into a mellanox netdevice, 'dmesg' shows the device is recovered successfully, but 'lspci' didn't show the device. I checked the configuration space of the slot where the netdevice is inserted and found out the bit 'PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_BUS_RESET' is set. Later, I found out it is because this bit is saved in 'saved_config_space' of 'struct pci_dev' when 'pci_pm_runtime_suspend()' is called. And 'PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_BUS_RESET' is set every time we restore the configuration sapce. This patch use 'pm_runtime_get' to avoid saving the configuration space of the bridge when the bus is being reset.
