From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx> Commit 3775fc538f53 ("PM: sleep: core: Synchronize runtime PM status of parents and children") exposed an issue related to simple_pm_bus_pm_ops that uses pm_runtime_force_suspend() and pm_runtime_force_resume() as bus type PM callbacks for the noirq phases of system-wide suspend and resume. The problem is that pm_runtime_force_suspend() does not distinguish runtime-suspended devices from devices for which runtime PM has never been enabled, so if it sees a device with runtime PM status set to RPM_ACTIVE, it will assume that runtime PM is enabled for that device and so it will attempt to suspend it with the help of its runtime PM callbacks which may not be ready for that. As it turns out, this causes simple_pm_bus_runtime_suspend() to crash due to a NULL pointer dereference. Another problem related to the above commit and simple_pm_bus_pm_ops is that setting runtime PM status of a device handled by the latter to RPM_ACTIVE will actually prevent it from being resumed because pm_runtime_force_resume() only resumes devices with runtime PM status set to RPM_SUSPENDED. To mitigate these issues, do not allow power.set_active to propagate beyond the parent of the device with DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND set that will need to be resumed, which should be a sufficient stop-gap for the time being, but they will need to be properly addressed in the future because in general during system-wide resume it is necessary to resume all devices in a dependency chain in which at least one device is going to be resumed.
