That's a good question. I assume this looks like a standard PCIe
hot-add event?
When you hot-add a device, does the Root Port generate a Presence
Detect Changed interrupt? The pciehp driver should field that
interrupt and turn on power to the slot via the Power Controller
Control bit in the Slot Control register.
Does your hardware require something more than that to control the MAC
and PHY power?
