Hi Rafael,
	Though removing devices on all suspends does not seem useful, I do not think
let the pciehp_suspend() be a NOP and the resume handle all the conditions is a good way.
Do the current pciehp driver's suspend and resume routines follow the pcie specification?
And, what's the difficulty to detect and handle the different situations that you mentioned
above?

Thanks,
Gu
