It's not acceptable to introduce multi-millisecond delays at interrupt time. In fact, we should generally not use udelay in such context. I understand that this is an exceptional error handling case but it's still not right. Are there many other users of pci_set_pcie_reset_state() at interrupt time ? Can we have a discussion with the PCI folks as to whether that should be legal or not ? I'm tempted to require that it's made illegal.
