I think we should get rid of the open coded PCI PM state management, since
otherwise platform related bugs like the Intel PCIe PM quirk that sets
pci_pm_d3_delay to 120ms would have to be duplicated around the tree.

That said, waiting for 120ms with a busy wait seems a bit absurd if we can
avoid it. Either we need to find a way to make drivers only change states
(which can be very slow) in non-atomic context or we'll need to add a busy
wait variant of the power state call...
