Hrm, what's the situation where that happens and why does it cause problems? The regulator API doesn't care if suspend is going on, and nor do any of the current drivers for regulators. There is an issue with keeping things like I2C alive until the bitter end of suspend so you've got a control bus to the regulators but that's a generic issue which crops up with other subsystems too so a regulator-specific workaround seems dodgy. The patch itself seems fine, it's just that it feels like there's something else going on. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
