Why don't we add an extra arg to that funtion, then, instead of trying to
play with the PM core's internals in generally unreliable ways?

Above?

Both runtime_status and is_prepared are internal to the PM core.  In fact,
there's no guarantee that is_prepared will be needed in the future even, so
you've made quite a bit of a mess by using it outside of the PM core.

Moreover, what you've done is obviously racy, but question is whether or
not the race really matters.  Like, for example, what happens if PCI device
removal is triggered from user space via sysfs in parallel with a runtime
suspend?

Plus the $subject patch introduced mp_should_keep_irq() and then duplicated
the exact same code in acpi_pci_irq_disable(), so it doesn't look like it
actually received enough consideration which is worrisome.

Moreover, the original patchset this is "fixing" apparently disregarded power
management entirely which is even more concerning.

KR,
Rafael
