interesting.. It seems to be the same controller used here. I wonder
if the pci topology is different or if the workaround is applied at
all.

But yeah, I'd kinda love for somebody with better knowledge on all of
this to figure out what exactly is going wrong, but everytime this
gets investigated Intel says "our hardware has no bugs", the ACPI
folks dig for months and find nothing and I end up figuring out some
weirdo workaround I don't understand. And apparently also nobody is
able to hand out docs explaining in detail how that runtime
suspend/resume stuff is supposed to work.

I have a Dell XPS 9560 where the added workaround in nouveau fixed the
problem and I know it's fixed on a bunch of other systems. So if
anybody is willing to publish docs and/or actually debug it with
domain knowledge, please go ahead.
