It's a lot of code.  There would be two ways to implement this:

1) Somehow store the links to figure out the value of:

	 devres_find(vbox->ddev.pdev.dev)->enabled

That's very complicated.  I'm sort of working on some of the steps
involved but and it's probably a multi year process before it's
possible.

2) Create a data base table with driver data, then store if the driver
calls pcim_enable_device().  This is still a bit of work, but probably
straight forward.  Storing driver data would be useful for other things
as well.
