Maybe wakeup was getting disabled, but seems it is working fine now. Patch is good to me if you're going to propose it for backporting, but you should test that it works properly with all of stable kernels. > > Indeed, I have been setting up some automated testing of various stable > branches (mainly 4.x LTS releases) and I am seeing this problem there. > Furthermore, I am using this to validate the change as well. > >> I just found this [0], seems your patch need to address the same review comment. >> >> [0] https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/3/29/18 > > Thanks will do. > > I know we don't support low power modes (ie.

I'd suggest to support LP0 in the core first and only then to start making necessary suspend/resume changes in the drivers, otherwise it may end up being wasted time and effort for you and other maintainers.
