Hi, Bowman,

After dive into the code details, I found that both dpc_reset_link() and
aer_root_reset() use pci_bridge_wait_for_secondary_bus() to wait for secondary
bus to be accessible. IMHO, pci_bridge_wait_for_secondary_bus() is better
robustness than function like pciehp_check_link_active(). So I think
reset_subordinates() is good boundary for delineating whether a link is
accessible.

Besides, for DPC driver, the link status of upstream port, e.g, rootport, is
inactive when DPC is triggered, and is recoverd to active until
dpc_reset_link() success. But for AER driver, the link is active before and
after aer_root_reset(). As a result, the AER status will be reported twice.

Best Regards,
Shuai
