commit 4ec73791a64bab25cabf16a6067ee478692e506d upstream. Due to an erratum in some Pericom PCIe-to-PCI bridges in reverse mode (conventional PCI on primary side, PCIe on downstream side), the Retrain Link bit needs to be cleared manually to allow the link training to complete successfully. If it is not cleared manually, the link training is continuously restarted and no devices below the PCI-to-PCIe bridge can be accessed. That means drivers for devices below the bridge will be loaded but won't work and may even crash because the driver is only reading 0xffff. See the Pericom Errata Sheet PI7C9X111SLB_errata_rev1.2_102711.pdf for details. Devices known as affected so far are: PI7C9X110, PI7C9X111SL, PI7C9X130. Add a new flag, clear_retrain_link, in struct pci_dev. Quirks for affected devices set this bit. Note that pcie_retrain_link() lives in aspm.c because that's currently the only place we use it, but this erratum is not specific to ASPM, and we may retrain links for other reasons in the future.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
