Hi,

There is some code duplication in this patch that should better be
avoided (details below).

The following code:

> +	ret = pm_qos_update_target(dev->power.constraints,
> +				   &req->node, PM_QOS_ADD_REQ, value);

> +	}

is used in dev_pm_qos_update_request() and dev_pm_qos_remove_request()
with the only difference being the command given to pm_qos_update_target().
This asks for a common function, eg. dev_pm_qos_update_target(), containing
that code that will be called by all of them (and, apparently, by
dev_pm_qos_constraints_destroy()).

I'm not sure why you're using the binary or operator here.  Shouldn't that be
a simple assignment?
