I believe this is what you are looking for:

echo auto | sudo tee /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:03\:00.0/power/control

In Linux the default is to keep the unmanaged devices in D0.
But changing the rpm to auto should transition the device to D3.

You can go further and check with the lspci -vv if there are other
unmanaged devices in the same pci root tree and also add them to the
'auto' rpm so you can even achieve D3cold in that whole device, what
gives you extra power savings.

I hope this helps for now.
