You're mistaken. The code in there is for *runtime* suspend, ie when the device is no longer used, so that case shouldn't even happen at all. (And real suspend isn't supported anyway) > Then, there is no need to save the playing registers, and, here I am, > there is no need to use regmap. > > May I go this way? No, please don't. regmap is also providing very useful features, such as access to all the registers through debugfs, or tracing. What exactly feels painful to you?
