So there was an RFC for the PCI power sequencing (now renamed to PCI
power control - pci_pwrctl), then a proper series for it (with changes
listed). Then an RFC with just proposed DT changes (sent mostly to DT
maintainers to clear it with them) and now an RFC with power
sequencing + PCI power control. Hard to figure out how to version it
if these are pretty much separate developments.

I'll provide links to everything next time.

Noted.
