This change is already included in

e100-adapt-to-the-reworked-pci-pm.patch:

  From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rjw@...k.pl>
  
  Adapt the e100 driver to the reworked PCI PM
  
  * Use device_set_wakeup_enable() and friends as needed
  * Use pci_pme_active() to clear PME_Status and disable PME#
  * Use the observation that it is sufficient to call pci_enable_wake()
    once, unless it fails

which I sent to Jeff on Aug 20 as a for-2.6.28 thing.

Maybe I should just mark e100-adapt-to-the-reworked-pci-pm.patch as a
for-2.6.27 thing next time I send that (large) pile of maybe-for-2.6.27
netdev patches.
