no, I told Lyude to test the pci/pm branch as the runpm errors we saw
on that machine looked different. Some BAR error the GPU reported
after it got resumed, so I was wondering if the delays were helping
with that. But after some cycles it still caused the same issue, that
the GPU disappeared. Later testing also showed that my patch also
didn't seem to help with this error sadly :/
