PCIe with AER actually does support per link root port reset
(e.g. used for AER)

I've been wondering for some time if kexec should not simply
use that to reset all the devices, instead of addings hacks
around this to all drivers.

That would fix your problems too, right?

The question is just if AER is widely enough supported for this.
