Thinking about this - you said that the problem occurs because 
pciehp_force=1 causes it to try to enable an already enabled slot, and 
then tries to power down the slot as a result? It sounds like this code 
should actually be checking whether the return value is ENODEV or 
EINVAL, and in the latter case not powering the slot down. That sounds 
like a separate bugfix that I'll send later on.
