Subject: [PATCH] Re: Sleep problems with kernels >= 2.6.21 on powerpc

From: Stefan Richter <stefanr@...6.in-berlin.de>
Subject: firewire: fw-ohci: ignore failure of pci_set_power_state (fix suspend regression)

Fixes "Sleep problems with kernels >= 2.6.21 on powerpc",
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/25/155.

Like it was suggested earlier in http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/10/24/13,
we do *not* fail .suspend anymore if pci_set_power_state failed.
