I think we're following the intention of the rule, and as you've
identified it's the implementation of the rule checker that's unable
to handle a commit title with internal quotes. We can ignore it, and
maybe follow up with a checkpatch.pl patch, or we could just avoid it
as follows:
vfio_pci: Restore original state on release
vfio_pci_enable() saves the device's initial configuration information
with the intent that it is restored in vfio_pci_disable(). However,
the commit referenced in Fixes: below replaced the call to
__pci_reset_function_locked(), which is not wrapped in a state save
and restore, with pci_try_reset_function(), which overwrites the
restored device state with the current state before applying it to the
device. Reinstate use of __pci_reset_function_locked() to return to
the desired behavior.
Thanks,
Alex
