[PATCH v7 5/6] PM / Runtime: force memory allocation with no I/O during Runtime PM callbcack

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch applies the introduced memalloc_noio_save() and
memalloc_noio_restore() to force memory allocation with no I/O
during runtime_resume/runtime_suspend callback on device with
the flag of 'memalloc_noio' set.

v7:
	- move memalloc_noio_save/memalloc_noio_restore into
	rpm_callback to avoid code duplication, as suggested
	by Rafael
v5:
	- use inline memalloc_noio_save()
v4:
	- runtime_suspend need this too because rpm_resume may wait for
	completion of concurrent runtime_suspend, so deadlock still may
	be triggered in runtime_suspend path.
