In addition, pci_power_t is assumed to match the power state in the
PM Control and Status Register, see pci_raw_set_power_state().
The PMCSR reserves only 2 bits for the power state, so it can only
represent D0 to D3hot. If the device is in D3cold, reads from its
config space usually result in an "all ones" fabricated response.
Thus D3hot and D3cold cannot be differentiated when reading the
power state in the PMCSR, they're represented by the same value.

Best regards,
