Actually, I have something more radical than that in mind. :-)

Namely, we don't need to call the wakeup-related stuff from acpi_pci_bind() and
acpi_pci_unbind().  It's only there, because I did't find a better place for it
when I added it.

If we can set the ACPI handles of PCI devices in pci_scan_device(), which isn't
too difficult to do (I actually have a patch for that and it's not too invasive),
we can easily move the wakeup enabling stuff to pci_pm_init() and wakeup
disabling somewhere near pci_release_capabilities().

Then we are only left with the _PRT setup in there, but that could be done
as soon as in pci_scan_device() too, if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks,
Rafael
