Considering one platform which doesn't support power off the i2c host but it can disable the host's clock. So in such platform, when the host is runtime suspended, its clock is disabled, then i2c_dw_disable() will hang when s2ram. Except using the runtime pm API to ensure the host is in a correct state, is there any other solution?
