I don't see that pci_save_state() does anything more than buffer the
hardware device state into save areas in struct pci_dev.  So by not
doing a restore, we are leaving that valid, but I don't really see how
that hurts anything.  The only reason we even really need to call
pci_load_and_free_saved_state() here is to free the buffer  Thanks,
