The above is from the non-working kernel version 6.12.73.  The BAR at
offset 0x14 in config space is restored and saved with a value of
"all ones" here (0xffffffff).

The working kernel version 6.12.63 is using "all zeroes" instead
(0x00000000).

I'm guessing that the initial pci_save_state() that the offending
commit inserted into device enumeration already saves the incorrect
0xffffffff value and that is subsequently restored by vfio-pci after
resetting the device through a D0 -> D3hot -> D0 transition.

On the working kernel, the pci_restore_state() performed by vfio-pci
probably becomes a no-op because no pci_save_state() was performed
beforehand.

Question is where the incorrect BAR value is coming from.  This could
actually be a resource allocation issue that happens to manifest itself
as a passthrough failure.  It's not visible in the dmesg output because
it is truncated.

Could you repeat this and add log_buf_len=16M to the kernel command line
so that the dmesg output isn't truncated?

Thanks!

Lukas
