If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 81a61051e0ce5fd7e09225c0d5985da08c7954a7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tony Lindgren <tony@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2023 10:56:42 +0300 Subject: serial: core: Fix checks for tx runtime PM state From: Tony Lindgren <tony@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 81a61051e0ce5fd7e09225c0d5985da08c7954a7 upstream. Maximilian reported that surface_serial_hub serdev tx does not work during system suspend. During system suspend, runtime PM gets disabled in __device_suspend_late(), and tx is unable to wake-up the serial core port device that we use to check if tx is safe to start. Johan summarized the regression noting that serdev tx no longer always works as earlier when the serdev device is runtime PM active. The serdev device and the serial core controller devices are siblings of the serial port hardware device. The runtime PM usage count from serdev device does not propagate to the serial core device siblings, it only propagates to the parent. In addition to the tx issue for suspend, testing for the serial core port device can cause an unnecessary delay in enabling tx while waiting for the serial core port device to wake-up. The serial core port device wake-up is only needed to flush pending tx when the serial port hardware device was in runtime PM suspended state. To fix the regression, we need to check the runtime PM state of the parent serial port hardware device for tx instead of the serial core port device. As the serial port device drivers may or may not implement runtime PM, we need to also add a check for pm_runtime_enabled().
