pci_raw_set_power_state(), called by pci_set_power_state(), contains
this, which looks to me like it would be the only case where the problem
you're describing could be coming from:

	dev->current_state = (pmcsr & PCI_PM_CTRL_STATE_MASK);
	if (dev->current_state != state && printk_ratelimit())
		dev_info(&dev->dev, "Refused to change power state, currently in D%d\n",
			 dev->current_state);

Do you happen to see this in the kernel logs? Perhaps this should be
considered an error rather than just an KERN_INFO level message?

Adding Bjorn and linux-pci for visibility.
