After recovering from a PCI error through reset, affected devices are in D0_uninitialized state and need to be brought into D0_active state by re-initializing their Config Space registers (PCIe r7.0 sec 5.3.1.1). To facilitate that, the PCI core provides pci_restore_state() and pci_save_state() helpers. Document rules governing their usage. As Bjorn notes, so far no file in "Documentation/ includes anything about the idea of a driver using pci_save_state() to capture the state it wants to restore after an error", even though it is a common pattern in drivers. So that's obviously a gap that should be closed.
