[Skiboot] [PATCH 1/2] hw/phb4: Assert Link Disable bit after ETU init

The cursed RAID card in ozrom1 has a bug where it ignores PERST being
asserted. The PCIe Base spec is a little vague about what happens
while PERST is asserted, but it does clearly specify that when
PERST is de-asserted the Link Training and Status State Machine
(LTSSM) of a device should return to the initial state (Detect)
defined in the spec and the link training process should restart.
This bug was worked around in 9078f8268922 ("phb4: Delay training till
after PERST is deasserted") by setting the link disable bit at the
start of the FRESET process and clearing it after PERST was
de-asserted. Although this fixed the bug, the patch offered no
explaination of why the fix worked.
In b8b4c79d4419 ("hw/phb4: Factor out PERST control") the link disable
workaround was moved into phb4_assert_perst(). This is called
always in the CRESET case, but a following patch resulted in
assert_perst() not being called if phb4_freset() was entered following a
CRESET since p->skip_perst was set in the CRESET handler. This is bad
since a side-effect of the CRESET is that the Link Disable bit is
cleared.
This, combined with the RAID card ignoring PERST results in the PCIe
link being trained by the PHB while we're waiting out the 100ms
ETU reset time. If we hack skiboot to print a DLP trace after returning
from phb4_hw_init() we get:

PHB#0001[0:1]: CRESET: Starts
What has happened here is that the link is trained to 8x Gen3 33ms after
we return from phb4_init_hw(), and before we've waitined to 100ms
that we normally wait after re-initialising the ETU. When we "deassert"
PERST later on in the FRESET handler the link in L0 (normal) state. At
this point we try to read from the Vendor/Device ID register to verify
that the link is stable and immediately get a PHB fence due to a PCIe
Completion Timeout. Skiboot attempts to recover by doing another CRESET,
but this will encounter the same issue.
This patch fixes the problem by setting the Link Disable bit (by calling
phb4_assert_perst()) immediately after we return from phb4_init_hw().
This prevents the link from being trained while PERST is asserted which
seems to avoid the Completion Timeout. With the patch applied we get:
