i2c dropped it generic suspend handlers at

Revert "i2c-omap: fix static suspend vs. runtime suspend"

Also, as of v3.1, the PM domain level code for OMAP handles device
power state transistions automatically for devices, so drivers no
longer need to specifically call the bus/pm_domain methods themselves.


- So it is rightly in the mercy of runtime PM to adequately represent
it's state. I disagree that i2c driver should in addition have to
remember what it's generic suspend state is.
- See the link to the cpufreq and the logs to see the call stack where
it fails.

Now, this is fine, since omap_i2c_xfer should ideally fail with a
pm_runtime_get_sync returning -EACCESS when device is really suspended
(remember, we are doing autosuspend - so, in the case I caught, there
was regulator voltage set prior to entering suspend, but timeout was not
yet hit for autosuspend of i2c to kick in yet).

pm_runtime_status_suspended checks only the dev->power.runtime_status
but that may not truely indicate device was in previous use - in the
case of devices like i2c who depend on autosuspend.

pm_runtime_suspended checks for dev->power.runtime_status ==
RPM_SUSPENDED and disable_depth

yes, and so it should fail to achieve low power state. we explicitly
stated disable suspend, yet we go behind the runtime PM's back and force
disable the module clocks. now drivers should NOT know what the state of
the omap_device meddling is and should obey the configuration and
completely trust pm_runtime to accurately denote the module state.

true if this is a non-autosuspend device, in auto suspend devices, this
could be a regular phenomenon if timeout is pretty large.. but atleast
that should allow debug.

restore of runtime data structure state is only needed for specific
devices - not all..
