Will do, thanks.

No to the first question, and incorrectly to the second. As it turns
out, my suspend/resume test for this patchset was flawed and wasn't
testing what I thought it was. The suspend/resume is broken in V8.

Using pcie_port_device_resume_noirq() is not early enough to turn on
the regulators during resume. However, if I have my RC driver handle
only the suspend/resume of the regulators, all is fine and as an
added benefit the patchset has no modifications to
portdrv_{pci,core}.c. This is what I will submit for V9, assuming
there is one.

I will reply to Pali's recent email now.
