No.
none1@pci0:3:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x058a1014 chip=0x1014168c
rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
vendor = 'Atheros Communications Inc.'
device = 'AR5212 Atheros AR5212 802.11abg wireless'
class = network
subclass = ethernet
cap 01[40] = powerspec 2 supports D0 D3 current D0
cap 05[50] = MSI supports 1 message
cap 10[60] = PCI-Express 1 legacy endpoint
cap 11[90] = MSI-X supports 1 message in map 0x10
As you see, even in case without driver,
it's power status is D0 and the device is hot.
Setting hw.....nodriver=3 has no effect.
I think I need to write D3 by hand.
