From: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx> As commit 0a9fd0152929db372ff61b0d6c280fdd34ae8bdb 'xen/pciback: Document the entry points for 'pcistub_put_pci_dev'' explained there are four entry points in this function. Two of them are when the user fiddles in the SysFS to unbind a device which might be in use by a guest or not. Both 'unbind' states will cause a deadlock as the the PCI lock has already been taken, which then pci_device_reset tries to take. We can omit this by detecting this and using the 'already locked' variant of the pci_device_reset - but we don't need to do either as that is done much later when the PCIback device structures are destroyed. As such lets use the 'try_reset' variant. That means we still end up FLR-ing the device in between swapping it from one guest to another. The FLR when 'unbind' part is still taken care by pci_device_reset.
