So I guess the scenario is that we got here because some driver called
pci_save_state(pdev):

pci_save_state
dev->state_saved = true <--
pci_save_pcie_state
pci_save_aspm_l1ss_state
if (pcie_downstream_port(pdev))
return
# save pdev L1SS state here
if (parent->state_saved) <--
return
# save parent L1SS state here

and the problem is that we previously called pci_save_state(parent),
which set "parent->state_saved = true" but did not save its L1SS state
because pci_save_aspm_l1ss_state() is a no-op for Downstream Ports,
right?

But I would think this would be a very common situation because
pcie_portdrv_probe() calls pci_save_state() for Downstream Ports when
pciehp, AER, PME, etc, are enabled, and this would happen before the
pci_save_state() calls from Endpoint drivers.

So I'm a little surprised that this didn't blow up for everybody
immediately. Is there something that makes this unusual?
