As you correctly state it is not a device quirk.  It describes the
power management applied by the platform.  So we do need to communicate
it through the core PM and/or PCI code.  Please work with the relevant
maintainers.

This doesn't make sense.  Your plaform can't know what device is connected
to a given root port / slot.  So you might have different policies per
slot, but that has nothing to do with the Linux drivers for given devices.
