Thanks for reminding me about this. I don't remember why I marked it
"changes requested" but I often do that if there's been significant
discussion. In this case you also provided additional information
(Fixes tag, bugzilla link, commit log elaboration) that should be
included. Given that, I would typically wait for the author to repost
it and incorporate the additional information.

But I applied it to pci/hotplug with the commit log below.

PCI: pciehp: Clear cmd_busy bit in polling mode

Writes to a Downstream Port's Slot Control register are PCIe hotplug
"commands." If the Port supports Command Completed events, software must
wait for a command to complete before writing to Slot Control again.

pcie_do_write_cmd() sets ctrl->cmd_busy when it writes to Slot Control. If
software notification is enabled, i.e., PCI_EXP_SLTCTL_HPIE and
PCI_EXP_SLTCTL_CCIE are set, ctrl->cmd_busy is cleared by pciehp_isr().

But when software notification is disabled, as it is when pcie_init()
powers off an empty slot, pcie_wait_cmd() uses pcie_poll_cmd() to poll for
command completion, and it neglects to clear ctrl->cmd_busy, which leads to
spurious timeouts:

pcieport 0000:00:03.0: pciehp: Timeout on hotplug command 0x01c0 (issued 2264 msec ago)
pcieport 0000:00:03.0: pciehp: Timeout on hotplug command 0x05c0 (issued 2288 msec ago)

Clear ctrl->cmd_busy in pcie_poll_cmd() when it detects a Command Completed
event (PCI_EXP_SLTSTA_CC).
