I really don't like this. If hotplug driver is restoring the state
and DPC driver is not; let's fix the DPC driver rather than causing
two resets and hope for the best.

One approach is to share the restore code between hotplug driver and
DPC driver.

If this is a too involved change, DPC driver should restore state
when hotplug is not supported.

DPC driver should be self-sufficient by itself.

DPC should handle both fatal and non-fatal cases and cause a bus reset
in hardware already before triggering an interrupt.

I disagree that you need an additional reset on top of DPC reset.
Isn't one reset enough?

What will the second reset provide that first reset won't provide?

I see that you are trying to do the second reset only because second
reset restores state.

That looks like a short-term fix only to explode on the next iteration.
