here is the code of do_fatal_recovery, where I have moved the things down
and doing only if it is bridge.
let me know how this looks to you, so then I can post v16.

This looks superficially OK. It is very difficult for me to verify that
the behavior is equivalent to the current code, but that's not your fault;
it's just a consequence of the existing design.

I have a couple trivial comments elsewhere, and I'll respond to those
patches individually.

static pci_ers_result_t do_fatal_recovery(struct pci_dev *dev, int severity)
{
struct pci_dev *udev;
struct pci_bus *parent;
struct pci_dev *pdev, *temp;
struct aer_broadcast_data result_data;
pci_ers_result_t result = PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED;


if (dev->hdr_type == PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE)
udev = dev;
else
udev = dev->bus->self;

parent = udev->subordinate;
pci_lock_rescan_remove();
list_for_each_entry_safe_reverse(pdev, temp, &parent->devices,
bus_list) {
pci_dev_get(pdev);
pci_dev_set_disconnected(pdev, NULL);
if (pci_has_subordinate(pdev))
pci_walk_bus(pdev->subordinate,
pci_dev_set_disconnected, NULL);
pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device(pdev);
pci_dev_put(pdev);
}

result = reset_link(udev, severity);
if (severity == AER_FATAL && dev->hdr_type ==
PCI_HEADER_TYPE_BRIDGE) {
pci_walk_bus(dev->subordinate, report_resume, &result_data);

Why are we calling resume?

pci_cleanup_aer_uncorrect_error_status(dev);
dev->error_state = pci_channel_io_normal;
}
if (result == PCI_ERS_RESULT_RECOVERED)
if (pcie_wait_for_link(udev, true))
pci_rescan_bus(udev->bus);

pci_unlock_rescan_remove();

return result;
}

Oza.
