Yes it is not ideal. However, it is safe.

Right.

I think that it would be fragile to have a global for all banks. What
happens if one bank failed during the probe? Probably unlikely but still.

The best solution would be to be able to plug the pm-runtime
resume/suspend handlers at the end of the probe or be able to enable the
module without the callback handlers being calling during the probe. I
am not sure if there is a way to do this. May be Kevin knows.

Another option is to move the initialisation of the bank->loses_context
to after the call to pm_runtime_get_sync() in the probe. This would
prevent the context restore occurring during the initial runtime resume.
However, if you look at the runtime resume function there are still some
register writes that do occur (which is basically what happens today).
This works but it is a little fragile, however, we can do that if
preferred. May be I could add a comment to the probe to say why we
initialise bank->loses_context after the pm_runtime_get_sync() so no one
moves this in the future (and more importantly I don't forget!).

Cheers
Jon
