To me it looks odd to (mis-)use the quirk mechanism to set a device
to D3cold on shutdown. As I see it the quirk mechanism is used to work
around certain device misbehavior. And setting a device to a D3
state on shutdown is a normal activity, and the shutdown() callback
seems to be a good place for it.
I miss an explanation what the actual benefit of the change is.
