So (a) would seem to be feasible, we could add a quirk for devices like
this to call pciehp_check_link_active() in pciehp_get_adapter_status().

Alternatively, we could generally add a call to pciehp_check_link_active()
in get_adapter_status(), pciehp_check_presence() and pcie_init() and thus
avoid a quirk for this specific device.
The existing call in __pciehp_enable_slot() could actually be removed,
this code path is only entered if either PDS or DLLLA is set.

And the third option would be to add a quirk like quirk_hotplug_bridge()
which sets is_hotplug_bridge = 0 on this broken device such that pciehp
doesn't bind to it in the first place.

Bjorn, please let me know which of these options you'd prefer.

Thanks,

Lukas
