I think it's a bug fix for Intel legacy platforms (Baytrail, Broadwell)
where runtime_pm isn't supported. However the additional fixes for
system suspend/resume were only provided for 5.8, so this patch in
isolation will not do much for those platforms. Put differently, even if
this patch is applied to 5.7 suspend/resume would still not work for
Baytrail/Broadwell.
Daniel, your call if you need this for i.MX?
