There are devices wich are not power-managed by the platform, yet can be
runtime suspended to D3cold with some other mechanism.  When putting the
system to sleep, we currently handle such devices improperly by trying
to transition them from D3cold to D3hot (the default power state defined
at the beginning of pci_target_state()).  Avoid that.

An example for devices affected by this are Thunderbolt controllers
built into Macs which can be put into D3cold with nonstandard ACPI
methods.

This only covers the case of !device_may_wakeup().  So I guess
device_may_wakeup() is false for these Thunderbolt controllers.
Is there a reason you don't want to do this check for devices that
may wakeup?
Fear of breaking things. It would mean that a device would be left in
D3cold even though it may not be able to signal wakeup from that power
state.
Then it should not be put into D3_cold at run time too if it is wakeup-
capable.

That's a change of behaviour the consequences of which I cannot
estimate. Intuitively, I would expect breakage from such a change.
That would have been the case if the device had been capable of signaling
wakeup from D3_cold at run time, but not from system sleep.  However, that
can only happen when platform_pci_power_manageable() is true AFAICS.

So I'd change the switch () under the platform_pci_power_manageable() check
to return "state" in the default case and then do

      return dev->current_state < target_state ? target_state : dev->current_state;

at the end of the function.
That suggestion doesn't seem to be correct because there's another
value besides PCI_D3cold which is also greater than PCI_D3hot,
namely PCI_UNKNOWN. (If the device is in that state, e.g. after
pci_device_remove() has been called, and the system goes to sleep,
we'd leave the device as is and not put it into D3hot as we do now.)
Right, I obviously forgot about PCI_UNKNOWN.
I will update this patch with Bjorn's suggestion to also leave the
device in D3cold if it is wakeup-capable. The idea is to just change
the default state in the first line of the function like this:

-       pci_power_t target_state = PCI_D3hot;
+       pci_power_t target_state =
+               dev->current_state == PCI_D3cold ? PCI_D3cold : PCI_D3hot;
That should work (even though it is a little clumsy IMO).

Thanks,
Rafael
