I didn't suggest there was a regression, but if we mention that Mika
debugged something, I want to know what the something was.
I'm guessing runtime PM doesn't work for some subset of drivers, and
this patch fixes that. So let's say exactly how to find that subset
of drivers, e.g., "drivers that implement X but not Y" or whatever.
