IMO I see this commit as two problems with the same solution.

I don't doubt that cleaning up AER interrupts in the shutdown path would 
help AER messages, but you really don't "want" devices to be in D0 when 
the system is "off" because even if the system is off some rails are 
still active and the device might still be powered.

A powered device could cause interrupts (IE a spurious wakeup).
