This is a good idea, I will try to enhance pci_device_serial_number to support legacy PCI device VPD capability. Then I will try to move this to a more generic place. > > Also, I think it's possible to use acpiphp for ExpressCard slots, and > this patch doesn't help acpiphp detect card swaps.

Acpiphp driver is not attached to a specific pci/pcie device, so i think there is no point to call driver->suspend/resume interface. Add cc Rafael J.
