We have report that the intel_lpss_prepare() takes too much time during
suspend, and this is because we first resume the devices from runtime
suspend by resume_lpss_device(), to make sure they are in proper state
before system suspend, which takes 100ms for each LPSS devices(PCI power
state from D3_cold to D0). And since resume_lpss_device() resumes the
devices synchronously, we might get huge latency if we have many
LPSS devices.

So first try is to use pm_request_resume() instead, to make the runtime
resume process asynchronously. Unfortunately the asynchronous runtime
resume relies on pm_wq, which is freezed at early stage. So we choose
another method, that is to avoid resuming runtime-suspended devices,
if they are already runtime suspended. This is safe because for LPSS
driver, the runtime suspend and system suspend are of the same
hook - i.e., intel_lpss_suspend(). And moreover, this device is
neither runtime wakeup source nor system wakeup source.

According to the comment in device_prepare():

A positive return value from ->prepare() means "this device appears
to be runtime-suspended and its state is fine, so if it really is
runtime-suspended, you can leave it in that state provided that you
will do the same thing with all of its descendants". 

Thanks,
Yu

Are there no defines for this?

Not at the moment, but I guess they can be added if really necessary. :-)

But that said it doesn't have to be 1 or any specific value. Any 
positive number will have the same effect.


Thanks,

Thanks for point it out,  Hi Lee, should I  repost a patch set to define the return value
and make this one based on that?
