If hotplug driver is restoring the state and DPC driver is not; let's fix the DPC driver rather than causing two resets and hope for the best. One approach is to share the restore code between hotplug driver and DPC driver. If this is a too involved change, DPC driver should restore state when hotplug is not supported. DPC driver should be self-sufficient by itself. > Also for non-fatal errors, if reset is requested then we still need > some kind of bus reset call here. DPC should handle both fatal and non-fatal cases and cause a bus reset in hardware already before triggering an interrupt. I disagree that you need an additional reset on top of DPC reset. Isn't one reset enough? What will the second reset provide that first reset won't provide? I see that you are trying to do the second reset only because second reset restores state. That looks like a short-term fix only to explode on the next iteration.
