Nice reduction :-)

Does device_enable_async_suspend() need to be called before enabling 
runtime PM? I suppose not since there appears to have also related sysfs 
node for toggling it runtime.

I'm thinking if you could move the device_enable_async_suspend() call 
into drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-core.c: i2c_dw_probe() and then 
also PCI enumerated adapter could take advantage of it.
