Two patches to improve disk spinup on resume: - Patch 1: Move the spinup operation to after the drive revalidation to ensure that the VERIFY command is executed with the link speed properly setup. - Patch 2: Attempt to spinup the drive only if it is not already spun up. Geert, It would be great if you could test this with your RCAR setup. I ran this on my usual machines and qemu. All good. But your setup has been useful to flush out issues before :) Thanks !
