Hi David,

Thank for your patch,

I would like to reproduce the calltrace before moving forward,
but have trouble to reproduce the original issue.

I'm working with vfio-pci and CX-4/5 cards on daily basis,
tried manually enter into D3 state now, and it worked for me.

Can you please post your full calltrace, and "lspci -s PCI_ID -vv"
output?

Thanks
