commit e7b856dfcec6d3bf028adee8c65342d7035914a1 upstream. As reported in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/206217 , raw_violation_fixup is causing more harm than good in some common use-cases. This patch is a partial revert of commit: 191cd6fb5d2c ("PCI: tegra: Add SW fixup for RAW violations") and fixes the following regression since then. * Description: When both the NIC and MMC are used one can see the following message: NETDEV WATCHDOG: enp1s0 (r8169): transmit queue 0 timed out and pcieport 0000:00:02.0: AER: Uncorrected (Non-Fatal) error received: 0000:01:00.0 r8169 0000:01:00.0: AER: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Uncorrected (Non-Fatal), type=Transaction Layer, (Requester ID) r8169 0000:01:00.0: AER: device [10ec:8168] error status/mask=00004000/00400000 r8169 0000:01:00.0: AER: [14] CmpltTO (First) r8169 0000:01:00.0: AER: can't recover (no error_detected callback) pcieport 0000:00:02.0: AER: device recovery failed After that, the ethernet NIC is not functional anymore even after reloading the r8169 module. After a reboot, this is reproducible by copying a large file over the NIC to the MMC. For some reason this is not reproducible when files are copied to a tmpfs. * Little background on the fixup, by Manikanta Maddireddy: "In the internal testing with dGPU on Tegra124, CmplTO is reported by dGPU. This happened because FIFO queue in AFI(AXI to PCIe) module get full by upstream posted writes. Back to back upstream writes interleaved with infrequent reads, triggers RAW violation and CmpltTO. This is fixed by reducing the posted write credits and by changing updateFC timer frequency. These settings are fixed after stress test. In the current case, RTL NIC is also reporting CmplTO. These settings seems to be aggravating the issue instead of fixing it."

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
