Okay.  Well it would be trivial to whitelist those ports with
device_property_present("HotPlugSupportInD3").  In how far are
your patches identical with the patches I submitted last May?
I've started reworking them for v2 but that would be a waste of
time if you're working on this issue in parallel.
