Not sure. I had no problems with the PCIe cards I tested with the current
code. But from my experience, this card reset behavior is highly card/device
dependent.
It would be good to know that this new code doesn't break detection of other
PCIe cards/devices. Prashant, did you check this new code with other PCIe
cards/devices as well? If this patch doesn't break other PCIe cards like the
Intel PRO/1000, then:
