Hi Lina,
I want to replay this with Juno this afternoon first, I'll post ASAP.
Also, based on Kevin's comment I was wondering if I should drop this
path already and try the other way as discussed (hook l2 devices to
runtime-pm, through the CPU device), but I still need to think about
this first.
Cheers,
Marc.
