I've just taken a look at the ACPI dumps provided by Michal Rostecki
and Arthur Borsboom in the Gitlab bugs linked below.  The topology
looks like this:

00:01.1        Root Port         [\_SB.PCI0.GPP0]
  01:00.0      Switch Upstream   [\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.SWUS]
    02:00.0    Switch Downstream [\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.SWUS.SWDS]
      03:00.0  dGPU              [\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.SWUS.SWDS.VGA]
      03:00.1  dGPU Audio        [\_SB.PCI0.GPP0.SWUS.SWDS.HDAU]

The Root Port is hotplug-capable but is not suspended because we only
allow that for Thunderbolt hotplug ports or root ports with Microsoft's
HotPlugSupportInD3 _DSD property.  However, that _DSD is not present
in the ACPI dumps and the Root Port is obviously not a Thunderbolt
port either.

Again, it would be good to know why it's working on Windows.
Could you ask AMD Windows driver folks?  The ACPI tables look very
similar even though they're from different vendors (Dell and MSI),
so they were probably supplied by AMD to those OEMs.

It's quite possible that Windows is now using a BIOS cut-off and
allows D3 by default on newer BIOSes, so I'm not opposed to your patch.
But it would be good to have some kind of confirmation before we risk
regressing machines which do not support D3 on hotplug-capable Root Ports.

Thanks,

Lukas
