Thanks, much appreciated.

I was thinking the PM core would take care of that. Grepping for
other users of pm_runtime_no_callbacks(), I see that most but not all
use pm_runtime_enable() on the device, too.

Asking linux-pm for help here: If we want to support RuntimePM for I2C
clients, do we need to enable RuntimePM on the logical I2C adapter
device (the bus master) which is already marked using
pm_runtime_no_callbacks?

> Perhaps we could just enable/disable adapter's runtime PM in i2c core.

That would be the proper place to do it, as I see it.

Thanks,
