I don't follow you very well. I think you're saying the source of all
information should be config space exclusively. The code is shared by
multple platforms, one of which is pSeries running on top of PowerVM
hypervisor or KVM/QEMU. The device resources are figured from device-tree,
not from config space.

Yes. We depend on pcibios_release_device() to disconnect EEH device
and PCI device. pcibios_release_device() might not be called because
of unbalanced refcount. The workaround here is to disconnect EEH device
and PCI device lazily, and then the EEH device is connected to the
right PCI device and EEH address cache is updated accordingly.

Ok. Thanks for confirm.
