[PATCH] PCI: Add Broadcom 4331 reset quirk to prevent IRQ storm

Further testing Broadcom 4331 reset quirk to prevent IRQ storm patch
testing reveals that:
  1. quirk is run on initial boot up and this time appears to have
vastly reduced the interrupts (only 81 this time):
cat /proc/interrupts| grep 17
 17:         81          0          0          0          0          0
         0          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   snd_hda_intel

 2. But it is apparently *NOT* run after a suspend/resume and we get
the problem:
 17:     100084          0          0          0          0          0
         0          0   IO-APIC-fasteoi   snd_hda_intel

Rebooting a further nine times shows the low number (below 100) only
happens around 1/3 of the times:

 Is there an easy setpci command to stop this we can add to grub?

Presently I have a grub work around for black screen as described here:
  http://askubuntu.com/questions/264247/proprietary-nvidia-drivers-with-efi-on-mac-to-prevent-overheating/613573#613573

which basically involves adding a grub scriptlet to enable PCI-E bus
mastering on graphics cards:

In /etc/grub.d/01_enable_vga.conf:

setpci -s "00:01.0" 3e.b=8
setpci -s "01:00.0" 04.b=7

Can we do some similar magic setpci commands to disable 04:00.0
which is my BCM4331

  lspci | grep 4331
04:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4331 802.11a/b/g/n (rev 02)

Thanks for any suggestions
