Procedural nits:

  - Run "git log --oneline drivers/pci/access.c" and follow the
    convention, e.g., starts with "PCI: " and first subsequent word is
    capitalized.

  - Use conventional commit references, e.g., 7ea7e98fd8d0 ("PCI:
    Block on access to temporarily unavailable pci device") and
    cdcb33f98244 ("PCI: Avoid possible deadlock on pci_lock and
    p->pi_lock")

  - IIRC you found that this actually caused a panic; please include
    the lore.kernel.org URL to that report.

You can wait for a while to see if there are more substantive comments
to address before posting a v3.
