The previous emails used wrong terminology, the hidden device is left hidden, and
all the opposite: unhidden is not touched in this sense.
The problem there that for the initially unhidden devices we call pci_stop_...
which seems incorrect and needs to be fixed, indeed.

Yeah, but I do not consider that is anyhow related to upstream.

Please, please, go with the pin control approach, let's not increase
the surface of the untested fields. Feel free to ask for a help from me
(and possibly Hans) if you need a such.
