Kernel 7.0.x regression: ACS violation on PCIe port 80:1b...

Hi all, following up from post #195 in the 7.0 opt-in thread as requested. Reposting the full details here with lspci -v output included.

Hardware

CPU: Intel Arrow Lake-S (Arrow Lake-HX 8p+16e cores)
Chipset: Intel 800 Series PCH
GPU (passthrough): Intel Arc Pro B50 (Battlemage G21, 04:00.0)
Thunderbolt: Intel JHL9580 Thunderbolt 5 Barlow Ridge (84:00.0 / 97:00.0)
USB controller (passthrough): ASMedia ASM3242 USB 3.2 (06:00.0)
NVMe (passthrough): Samsung S4LV008 Pascal (81:00.0)

Proxmox version: 9.2.3
Kernel boot parameters: intel_iommu=on iommu=pt split_lock_detect=off

VM Configuration

Code:

agent: 1
bios: ovmf
boot: order=ide0;hostpci0
cores: 8
cpu: host
hostpci0: 0000:81:00,pcie=1   # Samsung NVMe
hostpci1: 0000:06:00,pcie=1   # ASMedia USB 3.2
hostpci2: 0000:04:00,pcie=1   # Intel Arc B50 GPU
hostpci3: 0000:05:00,pcie=1   # Intel Arc B50 Audio
machine: pc-q35-10.1
memory: 30518
ostype: win11
vga: none

Symptom
The Windows 11 VM freezes shortly after the Arc GPU driver initialises on boot. Display output is lost, CPU pegs at 100%, and the VM becomes completely unresponsive. The host immediately enters a continuous AER error loop on PCIe root port 0000:80:1b.4 which persists even after force-stopping the VM and requires a full host reboot to clear. Keyboard and mouse (connected via the passed-through ASMedia USB controller) also stop responding at the point of freeze.

Root cause
The AER loop is triggered by an ACS violation on PCIe root port 80:1b.4 (device 8086:7f44), which is the upstream port for the Thunderbolt 5 subsystem. The violation appears to be triggered by DMA activity when the Arc GPU driver initialises, crossing an ACS boundary between sibling root ports 80:1b.0 and 80:1b.4.

dmesg (kernel 7.0.6-2-pve)

Code:

[  436.209061] pcieport 0000:80:1b.4: AER: Correctable error message received from 0000:80:1b.4

Kernels tested

6.17.13-13-pve — VM boots and runs normally
7.0.2-6-pve — freeze, ACS violation loop
7.0.2-7-pve — freeze, ACS violation loop
7.0.6-2-pve — freeze, ACS violation loop

Workaround
Pinned to 6.17.13-13-pve which resolves the issue completely.
