Would it work for you if you just amended the AER driver to skip
removal and re-enumeration of devices if the port is a hotplug bridge?
Just check for is_hotplug_bridge in struct pci_dev.

That would seem like a much simpler solution, given that it is known
that the link will flap on reset, causing the hotplug driver to remove
and re-enumerate devices. That would also cover cases where hotplug is
handled by a different driver than pciehp, or by the platform firmware.

Thanks,

Lukas
