Commit 047bda36150d11422b2c7bacca1df324c909c0b3 broke userspace. Previously, /sys/bus/pci/devices/foo/power/state could have values echoed into it for triggering suspend/resume calls in the driver. The breakage is handily mentioned in the comment:
"Devices with bus.suspend_late(), or bus.resume_early() methods fail this operation; those methods couldn't be called."
but there's no mention of what previously working code is supposed to do now. That's the second time in the past year or so that this interface has been broken - can we have it working again, please, especially as there doesn't appear to be an alternative yet?
