Do we need anything beyond that? Hrm. Possibly just some fiddling with those or alternative versions. For example, looking at the I2C bus suspend it's this: static int i2c_device_pm_suspend(struct device *dev) { const struct dev_pm_ops *pm = dev->driver ? dev->driver->pm : NULL; if (pm) { if (pm_runtime_suspended(dev)) return 0; else return pm->suspend ? pm->suspend(dev) : 0; } return i2c_legacy_suspend(dev, PMSG_SUSPEND); } Ideally the if (pm) block could just be factored out into the pm core as there's nothing I2C-specific about that at all. Possibly even the whole logic surrounding fall back to legacy, though that smells a bit. The generic suspend operation doesn't fit here: int pm_generic_suspend(struct device *dev) { return __pm_generic_call(dev, PM_EVENT_SUSPEND); } EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pm_generic_suspend); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
