However, I'm having second toughts about this because I remembered that people put a lot of effort getting discrete graphics with power resource attached to the root port powering off properly. If the root port matches the criteria in this patch it will not be able to go into D3 anymore. It might affect others such as M.2 connected NVMe or WiFi chip as well. For that reason I would still prefer blacklist, at least for now.
