lspci works ok because all it does is read the fake config
space.  The pci_set_power_state() call causes the PMU driver to
actually touch the device.  These devices shouldn't exist at all
anyway - according to the documentation the OS should only touch
spi controller 0, and the the other 2 should not be touched.  I
think I need to file a firmware sighting to get them removed entirely.
