The wakeup.prepared flag is used for marking devices that have the
wake-up power already enabled, so that the wake-up power is not
enabled twice in a row for the same device. This assumes, however,
that device wake-up power will only be enabled once, while the device
is being prepared for a system-wide sleep transition, and the second
attempt is made by acpi_enable_wakeup_device_prep().
With the upcoming PCI wake-up rework this assumption will not hold
any more for PCI bridges and the root bridge whose wake-up power
may be enabled as a result of wake-up enable propagation from other
devices (eg. add-on devices that are not associated with any GPEs).
Thus, there may be many attempts to enable wake-up power on a PCI
bridge or the root bridge during a system power state transition
and it's better to replace wakeup.prepared with a reference counter.
