If you're reading "all ones" from config space, it means the device is
inaccessible and the host bridge is returning this fabricated value after
a timeout.

That's not a driver in the upstream kernel.

Maybe that driver allows the device to runtime suspend to D3hot,
which in turn allows its upstream bridge to also runtime suspend
to D3hot.  Then the device would be inaccessible.

/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:01:00.0/power/runtime_status
would tell you whether the device is runtime suspended.
