While the experiment did reveal that there are additional places that are
missing the lock during secondary bus reset, one of the places that needs
to take cfg_access_lock (pci_bus_lock()) is not prepared for lockdep
annotation.
Specifically, pci_bus_lock() takes pci_dev_lock() recursively and is
currently dependent on the fact that the device_lock() is marked
lockdep_set_novalidate_class(&dev->mutex). Otherwise, without that
annotation, pci_bus_lock() would need to use something like a new
pci_dev_lock_nested() helper, a scheme to track a PCI device's depth in the
topology, and a hope that the depth of a PCI tree never exceeds the max
value for a lockdep subclass.
The alternative to ripping out the lockdep coverage would be to deploy a
dynamic lock key for every PCI device. Unfortunately, there is evidence
that increasing the number of keys that lockdep needs to track to be
per-PCI-device is prohibitively expensive for something like the
cfg_access_lock.
The main motivation for adding the annotation in the first place was to
catch unlocked secondary bus resets, not necessarily catch lock ordering
problems between cfg_access_lock and other locks. Solve that narrower
problem with follow-on patches, and just due to targeted revert for now.
