Wordsmithing nit: what the patch does is not "fix the error message";
what it does is fix the *problem*, i.e., the fact that we can't
operate the device because we can't enable MSI-X. The message is only
a symptom.

IIUC the relevant part of the system hibernation sequence is:

pci_pm_freeze_noirq
pci_pm_thaw_noirq
pci_pm_thaw

And the execution flow is:

pci_pm_freeze_noirq
if (pci_has_legacy_pm_support(pci_dev)) # true for mlx4
pci_legacy_suspend_late(dev, PMSG_FREEZE)
pci_pm_set_unknown_state
dev->current_state = PCI_UNKNOWN # <---
pci_pm_thaw_noirq
if (pci_has_legacy_pm_support(pci_dev)) # true
pci_legacy_resume_early(dev) # noop; mlx4 doesn't implement
pci_pm_thaw # returns -95 EOPNOTSUPP
if (pci_has_legacy_pm_support(pci_dev)) # true
pci_legacy_resume
drv->resume
mlx4_resume # mlx4_driver.resume (legacy)
mlx4_load_one
mlx4_enable_msi_x
pci_enable_msix_range
__pci_enable_msix_range
__pci_enable_msix
if (!pci_msi_supported())
if (dev->current_state != PCI_D0) # <---
return 0
return -EINVAL
err = -EOPNOTSUPP
"INTx is not supported ..."

(These are just my notes; you don't need to put them all into the
commit message. I'm just sharing them in case I'm not understanding
correctly.)

The cc list suggests that this might be a fix for a user-reported
problem. Is there a launchpad or similar link you could include here?

Should this be marked for stable?

Oh, right, I dunno what I was thinking, sorry.

Hmm.

1) pci_restore_state() mainly writes config space, which doesn't
require the device to be in D0. The only thing I see that would
require D0 is the MSI-X MMIO space, so to be more specific, the
comment could say "restoring the MSI-X *MMIO* state requires the
device to be in D0".

But I think you meant some other comment change. Did you mean
something along the lines of "a legacy drv->resume_early() callback
and pci_restore_state() both require the device to be in D0"?

If something else, maybe you could propose some text?

2) I assume pci_pm_thaw_noirq() should leave the device in a
functionally equivalent state, whether it uses legacy PM or not. Do
we want something like the patch below instead? If we *do* want to
skip pci_restore_state() for legacy PM, maybe we should add a comment.

3) Documentation/power/pci.rst says:

... devices have to be brought back to the fully functional
state ...

pci_pm_thaw_noirq() ... doesn't put the device into the full power
state and doesn't attempt to restore its standard configuration
registers.

That doesn't seem consistent, and it looks like pci_pm_thaw_noirq()
actually *does* put the device in full power (D0) state and restore
config registers.
