Hi tetrahedra,

The original error ("unable to reset PCI device...") still occurs when trying 
to start disp-sys-usb.

Despite have the "no-strict-reset" set to True, you will continue to see the "Unable to reset 
PCI device: ... no FLR, PM reset or bus reset available" "error" message each time you are 
trying to attach a PCI device that does not support the FLR (Function Level Reset) [2].

The "no-strict-reset" enablement patch [1] allows you (libvirt) to assign a PCI 
device to domU, even when the device does not support any reset method .

The error message is kept there for the informational purposes so this way a person may 
become aware of that his PCI device may not be working as desired because it does not 
support any reset method, despite of which it still gets assigned to domU when 
"no-strict-reset" is set to True, thanks to the patch [1].

Hi Andrey,

All that may be true but it does not explain why the error message was
accompanying an *error condition* -- specifically that the VM refused to
start. If the error had simply been printed in the logs and the VM
started normally (with USB controllers) then it would not have been an
issue.
