If you look at the initial log shared by Aleksander you can see that there was no IRQ from device until the host resets the device during powerup. [ 7.060730] mhi-pci-generic 0000:01:00.0: MHI PCI device found: sierra-em919x [ 7.067906] mhi-pci-generic 0000:01:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0x600000000-0x600000fff 64bit] [ 7.076455] mhi-pci-generic 0000:01:00.0: enabling device (0000 -> 0002) [ 7.083277] mhi-pci-generic 0000:01:00.0: using shared MSI [ 7.089508] mhi mhi0: Requested to power ON [ 7.094080] mhi mhi0: Attempting power on with EE: PASS THROUGH, state: SYS ERROR [ 7.180371] mhi mhi0: local ee: INVALID_EE state: RESET device ee: PASS THROUGH state: SYS ERROR So once the host detects that the device is in SYS_ERR state (might have happended during the warm reboot and the device went to a bad state), host resets the device. I'm going by the powerup scenario and in that case, the commit description is valid.
