Subject: Enumeration issue with QCA9005 AR9462

mmyangfl@...il.com reported a problem [1]: on v4.17, a QCA9005 AR9462
wifi device was present at boot, but disappeared after suspend/resume.

He/she also tested a recent kernel (5c60a7389d79, from Thu Aug 16),
where the suspend/resume problem doesn't seem to happen, but the wifi
device isn't enumerated correctly at boot-time.

  pci 0000:00:1c.3: PCIe Root Port to [bus 03-07]
  pci 0000:03:00.0: [1ae9:0101] PCIe Switch Upstream Port to [bus 04-07]
  pci 0000:04:00.0: [1ae9:0200] PCIe Switch Downstream Port to [bus 05]
  pci 0000:05:00.0: [168c:0034] QCA9005 AR9462 wifi NIC

These messages are extracted from [2]:

After manually executing:

  echo 1 > /sys/devices/pci0000\:00/0000\:00\:1c.3/0000\:03\:00.0/0000\:04\:00.0/rescan

the wifi NIC is discovered correctly:
