hi, Rafael, Kevin and Ulf,

after reading of the power related documents in Documents/power/, I'm
still confused whether the runtime_pm callbacks should be called in
system suspend callbacks.

I believe that system suspend does not care about the device's CMOS
status. And the device's CMOS status is controlled by runtime pm.
That why I gated the CMOS through runtime pm in the system suspend
callbacks.

But I checked all existing system suspend callbacks and found there's no
runtime pm was executed in system suspend callbacks. Does that means
when system suspend, the system suspend framework does not care about
the power consume? Or does it gated each device's CMOS in somewhere
else?

Or should I just remove the runtime pm callbacks in the system suspend
flow?

Could someone kindly give me some comments?

Thanks in advance.
