Subject: wacom + runtime PM = AA deadlock

Hi,

by mistake when runtime PM is enabled by default for input devices, X
hangs on wacom open:
[<ffffffff814a00ea>] mutex_lock+0x1a/0x40
[<ffffffffa02bc94b>] wacom_resume+0x3b/0x90 [wacom]
[<ffffffff81327a32>] usb_resume_interface+0xd2/0x190
[<ffffffff81327b5d>] usb_resume_both+0x6d/0x110
[<ffffffff81327c24>] usb_runtime_resume+0x24/0x40
[<ffffffff8130a2cf>] __pm_runtime_resume+0x26f/0x450
[<ffffffff8130a23a>] __pm_runtime_resume+0x1da/0x450
[<ffffffff8130a53a>] pm_runtime_resume+0x2a/0x50
[<ffffffff81328176>] usb_autopm_get_interface+0x26/0x60
[<ffffffffa02bc626>] wacom_open+0x36/0x90 [wacom]

wacom_open took wacom->lock and calls usb_autopm_get_interface which in
turn calls wacom_resume which tries to aquire the lock again.

More details (dmesg including) at:

Any ideas how to fix that properly?

thanks,
