[PATCH 3/3] carl9170: fix usb pm suspend->resume woes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch revamps some common code-paths which are
shared between (re-)initialization and suspend/resume
subroutines. It also adds some helpful comments
about quirks and associated difficulties.

It's quite big, but it should fix #25382:
<https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25382>

And hopefully the code is robust enough to deal with
all possible suspend/resume scenarios without requiring
the user to do any sort of manual and possibly
dangerous work.
