Just out of curiosity, what would happen if one of these troublesome
devices _did_ have a driver?  Would suspend still be broken?  Would you
then blame the driver instead of the PCI core?  Or would the driver be
smart enough to avoid putting the device in a low-power state?  But
doesn't that defeat the purpose of suspending in the first place?
