Subject: [PATCH 7 v2] PM / Domains: Queue up power off work only if it is not pending

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@...k.pl>

In theory it is possible that pm_genpd_poweroff() for two different
subdomains of the same parent domain will attempt to queue up the
execution of pm_genpd_poweroff() for the parent twice in a row.  This
would lead to unpleasant consequences, so prevent it from happening
by checking if genpd->power_off_work is pending before attempting to
queue it up.

Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@...k.pl>

One more patch to the "PM / Domains: Generic PM domains improvements" series,
the changelog should explain everything. :-)

Thanks,
Rafael
