The code above this hunk is:

/*
 * Trigger a secondary bus reset (SBR) on ourselves using our parent.
 *
 * Based on pci_parent_bus_reset() which is not exported by the
 * kernel core.
 */
static int trigger_sbr(struct hfi1_devdata *dd)
{

[..]

This really seems like something the PCI core should be helping with,
drivers shouldn't be doing stuff like this. I get the feeling this
should be a common need if drivers support various error recovery
schemes?

Bjorn, would be appropriate to export pci_parent_bus_reset() or some
variation therin??

Thanks,
Jason
