Subject: Re: [PATCH] PCI / ACPI / PM: Resume all bridges on suspend-to-RAM

For the record, about the exactness of the patch description.

The patch mentions the regression by the commit c62ec4610c40, but it is not the cause of the bug (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20067) reported by me; I reverted c62ec4610c40 on linux-4.17.13, and the bug remained.

# Some details: my bug was introduced by the commit (i) 877b3729ca0 on Jan 3. The commit (ii) c62ec4610c40 was on May 22. The commit (iii) 26112ddc254c on Jun 30 fixes one problem caused by c62ec4610c40. The present patch modifies the code of the commit (iii), so it can be said as the completion of the commit (iii). It at the same time fixes my bug, too.

This suggests the present patch possibly fixes other unknown PM problems; former kernels had some loose end(s). Now this patch puts the kernel in a better position.

I'm a lay Linux user, and don't know if this post helps. If it does, it may be worth mentioning it in the above bugzilla entry.

Dziękuję (thanks), kernel developers. Best regards,
Teika (Teika kazura)
