By "unexpected reset", you mean a reset performed autonomously by the
device, or a reset initiated by the driver without help from the PCI
core?  Either way, I think the PCI core is pretty much out of the
picture and the driver is on its own.

Yes.

There *should* be at least the logging in Device Status for all PCIe
devices, though I'm not sure the PCI core handles that nicely.  I'm
looking at PCIe r5.0, sec 6.2.5: https://imgur.com/a/0yqygiM
