Quite frankly, I'm not sure of that. It really depends on how PME# is routed in given system. The spec permits routing it directly to the chipset as well as routing it through bridges and I don't know if we can assume that the first upstream device capable of generating wake-up events will handle it. That said, I think we can try returning from acpi_pci_propagate_wakeup_enable() as soon as acpi_pm_device_sleep_wake() returns 0 for current device. On the test systems I have it won't make any difference, because the GPE is shared among the root bridge and the first upstream bridge of the device in question.
