Thanks Jan for your review comments. Please see below for my comments.

Sure, I will fix it.

Thanks for catching this issue. I will fix it.

SSSS can be 0 or non-zero, subject to system configuration.

I prefer to keep this data structure since it will be helpful to debug
any issues
orfor future enhancements.

I can add the following check

if ((psdev->dev == dev) && (pci_is_dev_assigned(dev)))

We will change pcie_flr() to return error code. I will make this change
in the next version of this patch.

I will fix it.

I don't think so. Plus, it makes this interface and its usage more
complicated.
