There also remains a question about runtime power states and resume.

Oleksij, with your patch, which state does the controller get put into
during runtime suspend, D2 or D3? (You may need to enable runtime
suspend by doing

echo auto >/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:1d.0/power/control

in order to test this.) And if the controller is in runtime suspend,
does it resume correctly when you plug in a new USB device?

I'm pretty sure that without the patch, the controller gets put into D3
and resume does work.
