Because we just want to clear PME_Status and disable PME#, but
pci_enable_wake() involves an ACPI call and generally depends on the
dev->power.can_wakeup and dev->power.should_wakeup flags being set.

The patch I sent here http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=122096638020191&w=4
has a better changelog.

Thanks,
Rafael
