The proposal we're trying to implement is to handle this controller as
an RP that does not support CRS SV. Such an RP would never return
0xffff0001 for the vendor/device ID. If it never got a successful
completion, it would return 0xffffffff.

So I think you do have to either retry (as in your v7 patch) or add a
delay before we start enumeration.

It looks like we waited somewhere between 320ms and 590ms before this
device became ready.

The PCI specs do require a delay after a reset (PCIe r3.1, sec 6.6.1)
before software sends a config request. I don't think there's
anywhere in the PCI core where we delay before we first enumerate
devices under a host bridge. I'm not sure we'd *want* such a delay in
the PCI core, because on many systems the BIOS has already initialized
the PCI controller, and an additional delay would be unnecessary and
would only slow down boot.

But it might make sense to add a delay in the PCI controller driver --
it knows when the reset occurs and probably knows more about the
firmware environment. I haven't tried to analyze all of sec 6.6.1,
but this section:

Unless Readiness Notifications mechanisms are used (see Section
6.23), the Root Complex and/or system software must allow at least
1.0 s after a Conventional Reset of a device, before it may
determine that a device which fails to return a Successful
Completion status for a valid Configuration Request is a broken
device. This period is independent of how quickly Link training
completes.

Note: This delay is analogous to the Trhfa parameter specified for
PCI/PCI-X, and is intended to allow an adequate amount of time for
devices which require self initialization.

makes it sound like a 1sec delay might be needed. That sounds like an
awful lot, but this device did take close to that amount of time.

I don't care which way you go. You've already implemented the delay
in the v7 patch, and that's fine with me.
