Is the ref count decrement in pci-link.c in this section of code:
#ifdef  FUTURE_USE
        /*
         * The Link reference count allows us to _DISable an unused link
         * and suspend time, and set it again  on resume.
         * However, 2.6.12 still has irq_router.resume
         * which blindly restores the link state.
         * So we disable the reference count method
         * to prevent duplicate acpi_pci_link_set()
         * which would harm some systems
         */
        link->refcnt--;
#endif


Or is it somewhere else?  Just want to make sure I know where I need to
avoid calling into.
