[PATCH v2] PCI: Do not attempt to set ExtTag for VFs
From: Håkon Bugge
Date: Wed Nov 12 2025 - 04:55:19 EST
The bit for enabling extended tags is Reserved and Preserved (RsvdP)
for VFs, according to PCIe r7.0 section 7.5.3.4 table 7.21. Hence,
bail out early from pci_configure_extended_tags() if the device is a
VF.
Otherwise, we may see incorrect log messages such as:
kernel: pci 0000:af:00.2: enabling Extended Tags
(af:00.2 is a VF)
Fixes: 60db3a4d8cc9 ("PCI: Enable PCIe Extended Tags if supported")
