So I'm not sure about the value of this change.
The behavior is made Intel-specific in [14a 1/1] and it will be that
way at least for some time. This change only sets the date after
which it won't be Intel-specific any more, but for what reason
exactly?
And why is 2024 the cut-off year (and not 2025, for example)?
If Intel platforms continue to be OK with putting all PCIe ports into
D3hot beyond 2024, why restrict the kernel from doing so on them?
