This needs more detail on the approach taken to handle tx and the issues
involved (e.g. stalled ports etc).

Why do you need a subdriver callback for this? Why no schedule a resume
in core rather than spreading the logic out over core and subdrivers?

This is racy since nothing prevents the device from being suspended
right here.

Perhaps as an intermediate step, but this looks like another argument
for handling everything runtime PM related in core (i.e. enabling
runtime pm and generic suspend/resume ops) and adding callbacks to do
subdriver specific bits instead.
