I think "powercycle" significantly expands the scope vs what is being
proposed here.  This is specifically only testing one method available
for slot power, the one used for D3cold.  If targeted more generically
as "powercycle", that would logically imply support for other slot
power control mechanisms, such as for hotplug slots.  Thanks,
