I see.

You are assuming autosuspend should always be with a delay. Why?

Secondly, you are not using a counter. Therefore only one driver can
control the PM state of a device at a given time. Is that wise?

In which unit of time? If this is to go into kerneldoc that must be specified.

Why is this needed?

Eeek! This is a bad idea. You never want to a resume to be cancelled.

That is the most glorious abuse of an API I've seen this year :-)
