I raised the possibility of a stable tag for this.  If you'd like
that, please add the tag and some justification per
Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst.

A kernel.org bugzilla pointer to show the user-visible effect of this,
e.g., "lspci -vv" and a dmesg log showing an error that should be
recoverable but isn't, would be a good start.  That would actually be
useful even if you don't want a stable tag.
