Shouldn't these (and across entire series) be consistent terms?
E.g., "PCI devres API".

First of all, I think it's better to group PM stuff, like

u8 pm_cap; /* PM capability offset */
unsigned int pme_support:5; /* Bitmask of states from which PME#
can be generated */
unsigned int imm_ready:1; /* Supports Immediate Readiness */
unsigned int enabled:1; /* Whether this dev is enabled */
unsigned int pinned:1; /* Whether this dev is pinned */

Second, does this layout anyhow related to the HW layout? (For example,
PME bits and their location in some HW register vs. these bitfields)
If so, but not sure, it might be good to preserve (to some extent) the
order.
