I'm wondering if there's a reason to use a different order on save versus
restore?  E.g. does PTM need to be restored last?

TPH isn't really an ACPI-specific feature, it could exist on
devicetree-based platforms as well.  I think there could be valid
use cases for enabling TPH support on such platforms:

E.g. the platform firmware or bootloader might set up the TPH Extended
Capability in a specific way and the kernel would have to save/restore
it on system sleep.

So I'd recommend removing this dependency.

Note that there's a static inline for acpi_check_dsm() which returns
false if CONFIG_ACPI=n, so tph_invoke_dsm() returns AE_ERROR and
pcie_tph_get_cpu_st() returns -EINVAL.  It thus looks like you may not
even need an #ifdef.

The PCIe features added most recently (such as DOE) have been placed
directly in drivers/pci/ instead of the pcie/ subdirectory.
The pcie/ subdirectory mostly deals with port drivers.
So perhaps tph.c should likewise be placed in drivers/pci/ ?

This patch doesn't seem to use any of the symbols defined in pci-acpi.h,
or did I miss anything?  I'd move the inclusion of pci-acpi.h to the patch
that actually uses its symbols.

Thanks,
