I think enabling pm_runtime_use_autosuspend() for pwm, adding a flag for pwm_enabled, and blocking cpu_pm if pwm_enabled is set might do the trick though. Then clear pwm_enabled flag in runtime_suspend if set. This depend on cpuidle respecting NOTIFY_BAD that I fixed in the recent thread: [PATCH 0/3] Block idle in gpio-omap with cpu_pm Regards, Tony
