Right and sadly the guy doing EEH on our side left and I didn't notice
what was going on in the list.
But Bjorn should know better :-)

That's a good idea, but we need to fix DPC and AER understanding of the
intent of those callbacks, not change the spec to match the broken
implementation.

Which is mostly useless for anything that isn't a network device.
We've been doing EEH for something like 15 to 20 years, so we have a
long experience with what it takes to get PCI(e) devices to recover on
enterprise systems.
Removing and re-enumerating is one of the very worst thing you can do
in that area.
Cheers,
Ben.
