According to the PCI standard after PME_Turn_Off is sent all components
must respond with PME_TO_Ack. There doesn't seem to be any bit exposed
to check if acks were received but the standard recommends a 1-10ms
timeout after which you should proceed anyway.

It seems the NXP vendor tree has an udelay(1000) which I missed, it
seems like an acceptable solution. Or maybe it should be msleep(10)?
