Some of the entry points to pm runtime are not safe to
call in atomic context unless pm_runtime_irq_safe() has
been called. Inspecting the code, it is not immediately
obvious that the functions sleep at all, as they run
inside a spin_lock_irqsave, but under some conditions
they can drop the lock and turn on irqs.
If a driver incorrectly calls the pm_runtime apis, it can
cause sleeping and irq processing when it expects to stay
in atomic context.
Add might_sleep_if to the majority of the __pm_runtime_* entry points
to enforce correct usage.
Add pm_runtime_put_sync_autosuspend to the list of

Currently the use of pm_runtime_put_sync() is not safe from
interrupts-disabled context because rpm_idle() will release the
spinlock and enable interrupts for the idle callbacks. This enables
interrupts during a time where interrupts were expected to be
disabled, and can have strange side effects on drivers that expected
interrupts to be disabled.
This is not a bug since the documentation clearly states that only
_put_sync_suspend() is safe in IRQ-safe mode.
However, pm_runtime_put_sync() could be made safe when in IRQ-safe
mode by releasing the spinlock but not re-enabling interrupts, which
is what this patch aims to do.
Problem was found when using some buggy drivers that set
pm_runtime_irq_safe() and used _put_sync() in interrupts-disabled
context.

Some callers of pm_runtime_get_sync() and other runtime PM helper

particular, need to distinguish error codes returned when runtime PM
is disabled (i.e. power.disable_depth is nonzero for the given
device) from error codes returned in other situations. For this
reason, make the runtime PM helper functions return -EACCES when
power.disable_depth is nonzero and ensure that this error code
won't be returned by them in any other circumstances. Modify

The naming convention used by commit 7538e3db6e015e890825fbd9f86599b
(PM: Add support for device power domains), which introduced the
struct dev_power_domain type for representing device power domains,
evidently confuses some developers who tend to think that objects
of this type must correspond to "power domains" as defined by
hardware, which is not the case. Namely, at the kernel level, a
struct dev_power_domain object can represent arbitrary set of devices
that are mutually dependent power management-wise and need not belong
to one hardware power domain. To avoid that confusion, rename struct
dev_power_domain to struct dev_pm_domain and rename the related
pointers in struct device and struct pm_clk_notifier_block from
pwr_domain to pm_domain.

Change the PM core's behavior related to power domains in such a way
that, if a power domain is defined for a given device, its callbacks
will be executed instead of and not in addition to the device
subsystem's PM callbacks.
The idea behind the initial implementation of power domains handling
by the PM core was that power domain callbacks would be executed in
addition to subsystem callbacks, so that it would be possible to
extend the subsystem callbacks by using power domains. It turns out,
however, that this wouldn't be really convenient in some important
situations.
For example, there are systems in which power can only be removed
from entire power domains. On those systems it is not desirable to
execute device drivers' PM callbacks until it is known that power is
going to be removed from the devices in question, which means that
they should be executed by power domain callbacks rather then by
subsystem (e.g. bus type) PM callbacks, because subsystems generally
have no information about what devices belong to which power domain.
Thus, for instance, if the bus type in question is the platform bus
type, its PM callbacks generally should not be called in addition to
power domain callbacks, because they run device drivers' callbacks
unconditionally if defined.
While in principle the default subsystem PM callbacks, or a subset of
them, may be replaced with different functions, it doesn't seem
correct to do so, because that would change the subsystem's behavior
with respect to all devices in the system, regardless of whether or
not they belong to any power domains. Thus, the only remaining
option is to make power domain callbacks take precedence over
subsystem callbacks.

The code handling system-wide power transitions (eg. suspend-to-RAM)
can in theory execute callbacks provided by the device's bus type,
device type and class in each phase of the power transition. In
turn, the runtime PM core code only calls one of those callbacks at
a time, preferring bus type callbacks to device type or class
callbacks and device type callbacks to class callbacks.
It seems reasonable to make them both behave in the same way in that
respect. Moreover, even though a device may belong to two subsystems
(eg. bus type and device class) simultaneously, in practice power
management callbacks for system-wide power transitions are always
provided by only one of them (ie. if the bus type callbacks are
defined, the device class ones are not and vice versa). Thus it is
possible to modify the code handling system-wide power transitions
so that it follows the core runtime PM code (ie. treats the
subsystem callbacks as mutually exclusive).
On the other hand, the core runtime PM code will choose to execute,
for example, a runtime suspend callback provided by the device type
even if the bus type's struct dev_pm_ops object exists, but the
runtime_suspend pointer in it happens to be NULL. This is confusing,
because it may lead to the execution of callbacks from different
subsystems during different operations (eg. the bus type suspend
callback may be executed during runtime suspend of the device, while
the device type callback will be executed during system suspend).
Make all of the power management code treat subsystem callbacks in
a consistent way, such that:
(1) If the device's type is defined (eg. dev->type is not NULL)
and its pm pointer is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->type->pm
will be used.
(2) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL, but the device's
class is defined (eg. dev->class is not NULL) and its pm pointer
is not NULL, the callbacks from dev->class->pm will be used.
(3) If dev->type is NULL or dev->type->pm is NULL and dev->class is
NULL or dev->class->pm is NULL, the callbacks from dev->bus->pm
will be used provided that both dev->bus and dev->bus->pm are
not NULL.

The platform bus type is often used to handle Systems-on-a-Chip (SoC)
where all devices are represented by objects of type struct
platform_device. In those cases the same "platform" device driver
may be used with multiple different system configurations, but the
actions needed to put the devices it handles into a low-power state
and back into the full-power state may depend on the design of the
given SoC. The driver, however, cannot possibly include all the
information necessary for the power management of its device on all
the systems it is used with. Moreover, the device hierarchy in its
current form also is not suitable for representing this kind of
information.
The patch below attempts to address this problem by introducing
objects of type struct dev_power_domain that can be used for
representing power domains within a SoC. Every struct
dev_power_domain object provides a sets of device power
management callbacks that can be used to perform what's needed for
device power management in addition to the operations carried out by
the device's driver and subsystem.
Namely, if a struct dev_power_domain object is pointed to by the
pwr_domain field in a struct device, the callbacks provided by its
ops member will be executed in addition to the corresponding
callbacks provided by the device's subsystem and driver during all
power transitions.

This patch (as1431c) makes the synchronous runtime-PM interface
suitable for use in interrupt handlers. Subsystems can call the new
pm_runtime_irq_safe() function to tell the PM core that a device's
runtime_suspend and runtime_resume callbacks should be invoked with
interrupts disabled and the spinlock held. This permits the
pm_runtime_get_sync() and the new pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend()
routines to be called from within interrupt handlers.
When a device is declared irq-safe in this way, the PM core increments
the parent's usage count, so the parent will never be runtime
suspended. This prevents difficult situations in which an irq-safe
device can't resume because it is forced to wait for its non-irq-safe
parent.

If runtime suspend of a device fails returning -EAGAIN or -EBUSY,
which means that it's safe to try to suspend it again, the PM core
runs the runtime idle helper function for it. Unfortunately this may
lead to problems, for example for PCI devices whose drivers don't
implement the ->runtime_idle() callback, because in that case the
PCI bus type's ->runtime_idle() always calls pm_runtime_suspend()
for the given device. Then, if there's an automatic idle
notification after the driver's ->runtime_suspend() returning -EAGAIN
or -EBUSY, it will make the suspend happen again possibly causing a
busy loop to appear. To avoid that, remove the idle notification
after failing runtime suspend of a device altogether and let the
callers of pm_runtime_suspend() repeat the operation if need be.

Drivers that do not want to use autosuspend can continue using the
same helper functions as before; their behavior will not change. In
addition, drivers supporting autosuspend can also call the old helper
functions to get the old behavior.

Some devices, such as USB interfaces, cannot be power-managed
independently of their parents, i.e., they cannot be put in low power
while the parent remains at full power. This patch (as1425) creates a
new "no_callbacks" flag, which tells the PM core not to invoke the
runtime-PM callback routines for the such devices but instead to
assume that the callbacks always succeed. In addition, the
non-debugging runtime-PM sysfs attributes for the devices are removed,
since they are pretty much meaningless.
The advantage of this scheme comes not so much from avoiding the
callbacks themselves, but rather from the fact that without the need
for a process context in which to run the callbacks, more work can be
done in interrupt context.

- For root hub suspend/resume support:
* Make the existing usb_hcd_resume_root_hub() routine respect pmcore
locking, exporting and using the dpm_runtime_resume() method.
* Add a new usb_hcd_suspend_root_hub() to pair with that routine.
(Essential to make OHCI autosuspend behave again...)
* HC_SUSPENDED by itself only refers to the root hub's downstream ports.
So let HCDs see root hub URBs unless the parent device is suspended.
- Remove an assertion we no longer need (and now, also don't want).
- Generic suspend/resume updates to work better with swsusp.
* Ignore the FREEZE vs SUSPEND distinction for hardware; trying to
use it breaks the swsusp snapshots it's supposed to help (sigh).
* On resume, mark devices as resumed right away, but then
do nothing else if the device is marked NOTATTACHED.
These changes shouldn't be very noticable by themselves.
