I'd like to avoid putting irrelevant stuff into bugfixes.

Apart from delights as bisecting and revert-only-offending-piece,
keeping bugfixes small and self-sufficient helps to back-port the
fixes to stable/distro kernels. Think of not so old kernels that
don't have dev_pm_ops.

Converting this driver (and others that I'm interested in) to
dev_pm_ops is on my todo list though.

Thanks,
