Subject: PM / runtime: Avoid false-positive warnings from might_sleep_if()

From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>


[ Upstream commit a9306a63631493afc75893a4ac405d4e1cbae6aa ]

The might_sleep_if() assertions in __pm_runtime_idle(),
__pm_runtime_suspend() and __pm_runtime_resume() may generate
false-positive warnings in some situations.  For example, that
happens if a nested pm_runtime_get_sync()/pm_runtime_put() pair
is executed with disabled interrupts within an outer
pm_runtime_get_sync()/pm_runtime_put() section for the same device.
[Generally, pm_runtime_get_sync() may sleep, so it should not be
called with disabled interrupts, but in this particular case the
previous pm_runtime_get_sync() guarantees that the device will not
be suspended, so the inner pm_runtime_get_sync() will return
immediately after incrementing the device's usage counter.]

That started to happen in the i915 driver in 4.10-rc, leading to
the following splat:

even though the code triggering it is correct.

Unfortunately, the might_sleep_if() assertions in question are
too coarse-grained to cover such cases correctly, so make them
a bit less sensitive in order to avoid the false-positives.
