Hmm.. I'm worried about pci wake/sleep locking:

 (a) pci_wake() (awake count =1)
 (a) do something
 Now, if pci_sleep() and pci_wake() happen simultaneously/are
preempted splitting primitive operations to:
 (a) pci_sleep(): decrease awake count (=0)
 (b) pci_wake(): increase awake count (=1), iowrite, wait for awake, return
 (a) pci_sleep(): iowrite(). return
 The flow in (b) now thinks the device is awake, but it's not
guaranteed to be anymore because it has been put to sleep by (a).
