Since commit 71723f95463d "PM / runtime: print error when activating a child to unactive parent" I see the following error message: scsi host2: usb-storage 1-3:1.0 scsi host2: runtime PM trying to activate child device host2 but parent (1-3:1.0) is not active Digging into it it seems to be related to the problem described in the commit message for cd998ded5c12 "i2c: designware: Prevent runtime suspend during adapter registration" as scsi_add_host also calls device_add and after the call to device_add the parent device is suspended. Fix this by using the approach from the mentioned commit and getting the runtime pm reference before calling scsi_add_host.
