[RFC PATCH] PCI: disable MSI/MSI-X before resetting

From: Brian Norris

Despite the claims in the associated comment block, it seems that
clearing the command register is not enough to guarantee that no
MSI interrupts get triggered during Function Level Reset. Through code
instrumentation, I'm able to clearly trace cases like this:

(0) reset a device:
echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/xxx/reset
(1) disable an MSI interrupt for device 'xxx' in a PCI reset handler
(disable_irq())
(2) pcie_flr() initiates reset:
pcie_capability_set_word(dev, PCI_EXP_DEVCTL, PCI_EXP_DEVCTL_BCR_FLR));
(3) about 0.5 ms later, kernel handles IRQ:
-> __pci_msi_desc_mask_irq()
-> pci_write_config_dword()
(4) this is well before the device is actually ready, and the system
sees a bus abort

Tested with MSI, but presumably MSI-X could have the same issue.

Tested on Samsung Chromebook Plus, with RK3399 OP1.

RFC, because I'm not really sure this is the right approach, or if
there's something else that's misconfigured or buggy.

Note that right now, configuration space aborts trigger SError aborts
(and panics) on RK3399, so this sort of problem is fatal. It's not clear
to me if that's a spec violation (many other PCI controllers manage to
mask such aborts), or an acceptable behavior. But FWIW, that means that
polling behavior like in commit 5adecf817dd6 ("PCI: Wait for up to
1000ms after FLR reset") cannot work; the first read when the device is
not ready will cause a panic.
