[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] vgaarb: call pci_disable|enable_device on decoding vga devices

Hi Dave,

This one plus the pci_disable_device and related error path cleanups are
part of the series to move the agp setup into drivers.

I've implemented your suggestion to work around the midlayer, so drm/i915
doesn't block for this at all. But I still think this is the right way to
solve this. Shall I resend all these patches so you have them in context?

Yours, Daniel
