The sticky status being the pciehp driver's "power_fault_detected"
field. We set it on the first observation of a slot's PFD and do not
clear it until we have a successful board_added event.

The only reason this was successful before was how everything was chained
through work queues, the work order being:

  INT_PRESENCE_ON -> INT_POWER_FAULT -> ENABLE_REQ

The ENABLE_REQ cleared the power fault at the end, but now everything
is handled inline with the interrupt thread (which was a great change,
IMO), such that the work ENABLE_REQ was doing happens before power
fault handling now.

The commit that changed that order:
