SubjectRe: PCI PM: Restore standard config registers of all devices early

But I want the gating to be tied to the device. IE. If the device is
ever suspended on its own, or the driver removed, I want the clocks
off. Ideally, I want USB autosuspend to be able to clock gate or that
sort of thing ..

I'd rather hook it up inside pci_set_power_state()...

I don't know yet what is biting us, though I suppose so. I only saw
Andreas report before going to bed yesterday ;-)

I wouldn't need a sysdev if I was going to put the gating under arch
control, I could just do that from various arch code I already have
there doing bits and pieces. But I like it being tied to the driver, it
makes more sense in many ways to have a driver control the clocks of its
device. Maybe the best approach is to stick a hook into
pci_set_power_state() ... This should really be the very first thing to
happen, even before whacking back the BARs.

Cheers,
Ben.
