So I think we *should* be able to call pci_disable_device at remove
time.  But as you say, some platforms may not correctly re-route VGA
space to an existing device or disable it properly when we do that.
AFAICT x86 will be ok here though (seems to work ok locally too).

That said, it seems like we should update the current device state at
load time as well, once we've matched the driver it seems like there
should be no harm.

Rafael, what do you think?  Would having the correct power state at
load time cause any trouble with other PM code?  I know we've had
issues with setting it explicitly in the past...
