Thanks. I took a quick look, but I haven't tested this yet myself.

What will be the timeout value when there are no pm_qos requirements
from user space applications? Do you know what will be the default
latency value in that case?

I'm mostly worried about timeout 0 case, for example I suspect ath9k
is broken with that value.

Also does this patch change the default value of dynamic ps timeout?
