What is Windows doing on these machines?  Microsoft came up with an
ACPI _DSD property to tell OSPM that it's safe to suspend a hotplug
port to D3:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/pci/dsd-for-pcie-root-ports#identifying-pcie-root-ports-supporting-hot-plug-in-d3

We support that since 26ad34d510a8 ("PCI / ACPI: Whitelist D3 for more
PCIe hotplug ports").

I've skimmed the three gitlab bugs you mention below and none of them
seems to contain an ACPI dump.  First thing to do is request that
from the users and check if the HotPlugSupportInD3 property is
present.  And if it's not, we need to find out why it's working
on Windows.

Thanks,

Lukas
