As you need this change, it means some other device requires the I2C
device to be runtime resumed, while a *_late callback tries to suspend
the other device. Right!?

Can you tell which these devices are?

Moving the suspend operations to the *_noirq callbacks could improve
the situation, but unfortunate it's comes with a limitation.
That's because runtime PM has been disabled (by genpd or the PM core)
before the *_late callbacks is invoked, which means the I2C device
needs to be runtime resumed in an earlier phase to make it
operational.

This is indeed a generic problem, as we don't have a way to describe
these kind of dependences between devices. In other words, we need to
control the order of how devices becomes suspended/resumed. If that
could be done, we could likely avoid runtime resuming devices
unnecessarily.

Kind regards
Uffe
