PCI: Put PCIe bridges with downstream devices into D3 at hibernate
During S3 suspend, pci_pm_suspend_noirq() puts PCIe bridges with
downstream devices into a low-power state. This commit aligns the
hibernate poweroff_noirq flow to use pci_pm_suspend_noirq_common(),
ensuring bridges with active children are also put into D3.

[Severity: High]
Could this lead to configuration space corruption if a hibernation aborts?
If a driver's poweroff_noirq callback puts the device into a low-power
state (like D3) but fails to save its state, calling
pci_pm_suspend_noirq_common() here will unconditionally invoke
pci_save_state().
Because the device is already in D3, reading the configuration registers
in pci_save_state() will populate saved_config_space with 0xFFFFFFFF
garbage.
If the hibernation process subsequently aborts, the PM core executes
pci_pm_restore_noirq(), which will blindly write this 0xFFFFFFFF garbage
back to the device's configuration registers (BARs, command registers, etc).
This will likely cause a system crash upon subsequent memory-mapped I/O
access.
Does pci_pm_poweroff_noirq() need the same explicit D3 safety guard that
the S3 suspend_noirq path uses to prevent reading config space from a
powered-down device?
