I'll go back to that message, but nothing so far has been flexible enough to cover everything you can imagine. The case this and the next patch cover really is to allow drivers that can be used with or without a PM domain to avoid doing any "are we suspended?" type of checks in their callbacks. Actually, the [6/6] is more important from that standpoint, but this one also may play the role because of the dependencies between devices involved in the handling of LEAVE_SUSPENDED (eg. say a PCI parent has a child platform or I2C or similar devices without a PM domain and what happens to the child affects the parent). > > > > Namely, make it skip all of the system-wide resume callbacks for > > such devices with DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED set if they are in > > runtime suspend during the "noirq" phase of system-wide suspend > > (or analogous) transitions or the system transition under way is > > a proper suspend (rather than anything related to hibernation) and > > the device's wakeup settings are compatible with runtime PM (that > > is, the device cannot generate wakeup signals at all or it is > > allowed to wake up the system from sleep). > > As I pointed out by submitting another patch [2], device_may_wakeup() > doesn't really tell whether the wakeup is configured as "in-band" or > "out-of-band".

The "or it is allowed to wake up the system from sleep" case may be overly optimistic, but the remaining two (runtime-suspended devices and devices that can't generate wakeup signals at all) are quite straightforward to me.
