I did look at that option, but implementing it in the USB subsystem seemed more logical to me, for example as other subsystems possibly would want to display an info message. And is -ENODEV safe to ignore in all cases? Would there be other errors that should be ignored too? if Rafael would be happy with a generic test for -ENODEV, it could be done. If not, maybe some other special error code would need to be used but then you'd still need to test in the subsystem to set that error. Disadvantage is also that it would make resume_device() and related PM driver core functions quite a bit less clean than they currently are. Implementing the test in USB was quite a bit simpler (for me at least ;-) Thanks, FJP -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
