  * pciehp has a 1:1 bus:slot relationship so we ultimately want a secondary
- * bus reset of the bridge, but if the slot supports surprise removal (or
- * link state change based hotplug), we need to disable presence detection
- * (or link state notifications) around the bus reset and clear any spurious
+ * bus reset of the bridge, but at the same time we want to ensure that it is
+ * not seen as a hot-unplug, followed by the hot-plug of the device. Thus,
+ * disable link state notification and presence detection change notification
+ * momentarily, if we see that they could interfere. Also, clear any spurious
  * events after.
