It was the branch I was trying to get rid of by recommending !!, how about:

return (status & PCI_EXP_DPC_STATUS_TRIGGER) == PCI_EXP_DPC_STATUS_TRIGGER;

...just so I know the style preference for future drivers/pci/ work?
That at least matches the pattern in the mm helpers that test pte
bits.

Right, and when the trigger is clear then dpc_reset_active keeps
holding off the hotplug driver until the dpc reset completes in
polling for the link up event.
