There is already a 'passive release' quirk in drivers/pci/quirks.c:

(line 24:void __init quirk_passive_release(struct pci_dev *dev))
(line 242:{ PCI_FIXUP_FINAL,      PCI_VENDOR_ID_INTEL,    PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82441,   
   quirk_passive_release },)

Maybe you should add your chipset to this list?
