Are the hotplug ports on this switch capable of D3hot?  There's a
series queued up for 4.10 which will suspend hotplug ports to D3hot
when nothing is connected.  I cc'ed Keith when I posted it, but I
forgot to cc you:

If you haven't tested this series so far, now would be a good time
to do so, as it would allow fixing regressions (if any) before 4.10
is out.  Note that this series might save you quite a bit of power
if you have lots of unused ports.

You can fetch the patches from:

Thanks,
