Runtime PM helper functions, like pm_runtime_get_sync(), cannot be
called by early platform device drivers, because the devices' power
management locks are not initialized at that time.  This is quite
inconvenient, so modify early_platform_add_devices() to initialize
the devices power management locks as appropriate and make sure that
they won't be initialized more than once if an early platform
device is going to be used as a regular one later.

by moving the initialization of common (i.e. used by both runtime PM
and system suspend) fields to a separate routine.

<title>PM / QoS: Make it possible to expose PM QoS latency constraints</title>

<content type='text'>
A runtime suspend of a device (e.g. an MMC controller) belonging to
a power domain or, in a more complicated scenario, a runtime suspend
of another device in the same power domain, may cause power to be
removed from the entire domain.  In that case, the amount of time
necessary to runtime-resume the given device (e.g. the MMC
controller) is often substantially greater than the time needed to
run its driver's runtime resume callback.  That may hurt performance
in some situations, because user data may need to wait for the
device to become operational, so we should make it possible to
prevent that from happening.

For this reason, introduce a new sysfs attribute for devices,
power/pm_qos_resume_latency_us, allowing user space to specify the
upper bound of the time necessary to bring the (runtime-suspended)
device up after the resume of it has been requested.  However, make
that attribute appear only for the devices whose drivers declare
support for it by calling the (new) dev_pm_qos_expose_latency_limit()
helper function with the appropriate initial value of the attribute.

To read the current PM QoS value for a given device we need to
make sure that the device's power.constraints object won't be
removed while we're doing that.  For this reason, put the
operation under dev-&gt;power.lock and acquire the lock
around the initialization and removal of power.constraints.

Moreover, since we're using the value of power.constraints to
determine whether or not the object is present, the
power.constraints_state field isn't necessary any more and may be
removed.  However, dev_pm_qos_add_request() needs to check if the
device is being removed from the system before allocating a new
PM QoS constraints object for it, so make it use the
power.power_state field of struct device for this purpose.

<title>PM: Do not create wakeup sysfs files for devices that cannot wake up</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, wakeup sysfs attributes are created for all devices,
regardless of whether or not they are wakeup-capable.  This is
excessive and complicates wakeup device identification from user
space (i.e. to identify wakeup-capable devices user space has to read
/sys/devices/.../power/wakeup for all devices and see if they are not
empty).

Fix this issue by avoiding to create wakeup sysfs files for devices
that cannot wake up the system from sleep states (i.e. whose
power.can_wakeup flags are unset during registration) and modify
device_set_wakeup_capable() so that it adds (or removes) the relevant
sysfs attributes if a device's wakeup capability status is changed.

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.

<title>PM / Wakeup: Introduce wakeup source objects and event statistics (v3)</title>

<content type='text'>
Introduce struct wakeup_source for representing system wakeup sources
within the kernel and for collecting statistics related to them.
Make the recently introduced helper functions pm_wakeup_event(),
pm_stay_awake() and pm_relax() use struct wakeup_source objects
internally, so that wakeup statistics associated with wakeup devices
can be collected and reported in a consistent way (the definition of
pm_relax() is changed, which is harmless, because this function is
not called directly by anyone yet).  Introduce new wakeup-related
sysfs device attributes in /sys/devices/.../power for reporting the
device wakeup statistics.

Change the global wakeup events counters event_count and
events_in_progress into atomic variables, so that it is not necessary
to acquire a global spinlock in pm_wakeup_event(), pm_stay_awake()
and pm_relax(), which should allow us to avoid lock contention in
these functions on SMP systems with many wakeup devices.

dpm_list currently relies on the fact that child devices will
be registered after their parents to get a correct suspend
order. Using device_move() however destroys this assumption, as
an already registered device may be moved under a newly registered
one.

This patch adds a new argument to device_move(), allowing callers
to specify how dpm_list should be adapted.
