PCI PM: Restore standard config registers of all devices early
There is a problem in our handling of suspend-resume of PCI devices that
many of them have their standard config registers restored with
interrupts enabled and they are put into the full power state with
interrupts enabled as well. This may lead to the following scenario:
* an interrupt vector is shared between two or more devices
* one device is resumed earlier and generates an interrupt
* the interrupt handler of another device tries to handle it and
attempts to access the device the config space of which hasn't been
restored yet and/or which still is in a low power state
* the system crashes as a result
To prevent this from happening we should restore the standard
configuration registers of all devices with interrupts disabled and we
should put them into the D0 power state right after that.
Unfortunately, this cannot be done using the existing
pci_set_power_state(), because it can sleep. Also, to do it we have to
make sure that the config spaces of all devices were actually saved
during suspend.
