While looking at the "incorrectly reset" comment, I noticed
stm32_pcie->link_status and wondered why it exists. It looks like
it's only used in stm32_pcie_start_link() and stm32_pcie_stop_link(),
and I don't see similar tracking in other drivers.
It feels a little racy because the link might go down for reasons
other than calling stm32_pcie_stop_link().
I think that as an excess of paranoid that was meant to protect against
a driver unbind when the link hasn’t started yet. In that case,
stm32_pcie_remove() would disable a link that’s already disabled.
But that shouldn’t be a problem to disable twice the ltssm enable bit,
as well as the perst irq. I’ll look into removing it. Is it okay if I do
this with a fixup patch?
thank you
