+Subject: [PATCH] PCI: aardvark: Update comment about link going down after
+ link-up
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+Update the comment about what happens when link goes down after we have
+checked for link-up. If a PIO request is done while link-down, we have
+a serious problem.
