CPUs usualy have timeouts for these things and they return 0xFF back
for the timed out read. Beyond that "it depends" if any other RAS
indications are raised.

Given this is a resume it seems likely the PCI routing inside the
bridge chip has been messed up somehow during the suspend/resume.

Possibily due to errata in the bridge, there are many weird bridge
errata :\
