During HW initialization, driver would set various registers to their needed values - but it assumes all registers start at their reset-value, so there's no need to re-configure a register's default value. This assumption might be incorrect, e.g., in case of preboot driver running and initializing the driver prior to our driver. To overcome this, we now ask management firmware to initiate a PF-flr early during the initialization sequence. That would return everything in the PF's scope back to default and prevent previous configurations from still being applied.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
