Ah, right, I bet that's it, thanks.  The kdump path is basically this:

  crash_kexec
    machine_kexec

while the usual kexec path is:

  kernel_kexec
    kernel_restart_prepare
      device_shutdown
        while (!list_empty(&devices_kset->list))
          dev->bus->shutdown
            pci_device_shutdown            # pci_bus_type.shutdown
    machine_kexec

So maybe we need to explore doing some or all of device_shutdown() in
the crash_kexec() path as well as in the kernel_kexec() path.
