Concluding from yours and Bjorn's suggestion, I will drop the
device_wakeup_disable() call form .resume() and send the fix. I will also track
the drivers who got similar upgrades and went un-noticed.

As Bjorn mentioned, the problem is that I don't have hardware to test, so I just
replicated the legacy behaviour in generic by replacing
pci_enable_wake(....,false) with device_wakeup_disable().

So, from now, while upgrading drivers with generic PM, should I completely drop
the pci_enable_wake(....,false) calls if both .suspend() and .resume() try to
wakeup-disable the device?
