for hotplug case, You can work around like: after hotplug add, 1. use lspci and /proc/iomem to find out offending device and bridge. 2. use /sys/.../unbind etc to stop driver for those devices. 3. use setpci to clear related BAR 4. use /sys/devices/pci000..../remove to remove those devices 5. echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/rescan then it should work...
