OK, put it in a different way: If the entity that calls acpi_dev_pm_attach()
exposes the flags _before_ calling it, then acpi_dev_pm_detach() should not
hide the flags. Otherwise, it should hide them. Currently, the only user
of acpi_dev_pm_attach() (that will be the platform bus type) will not expose
the flags before calling that routine, so it is OK for acpi_dev_pm_detach()
to remove them.
Is there anything I'm missing here?
