That is likely the cause.  On non-Mac platforms, the power is
controlled via the PX ACPI interface (for old platforms) or standard
ACPI power resources on more recent platforms.  This is handled by the
ACPI core on these platforms (i.e., D3cold).

All of those devices are part of the dGPU itself.  When the power is
cut to the dGPU, all of those devices will lose power.  If you are
reading all 1's from the PCI config space for any of those devices,
that is a good sign that the power is off to the GPU.
