Subject: [PATCH 1/1] powerpc/pseries/pci: quirks: Add pseries TG3 D3hot delay quirk for EEH stability

From: Narayana Murty N <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 05:35:29 -0400

On pseries platforms, binding Broadcom PCIe NIC devices to the vfio-pci
driver frequently triggers an unintended EEH (Extended Error Handling)
isolation event.

This occurs because the device firmware violates PCIe specification
recovery timings when transitioning from the D3hot to D0 power state
during the binding process. The strict pseries PHB catches the
resulting Unsupported Request during the subsequent configuration
space read, assuming a device failure.

Add a pseries-specific PCI fixup quirk for Broadcom devices to
explicitly extend the `d3hot_delay` to 200ms. This forces the PCI
core to sleep long enough for the firmware to safely complete the
D0 transition before attempting config reads, ensuring a clean VFIO
passthrough initialization.
