Another thought is that if keep_curr_dev_pwr_mode will be set as true
only if link is put in Hibern8 or Auto-Hibern8 is enabled. By this way,
the power consumption shall be very small after flush or auto-bkop is
finished.

Then the checking of flush status during runtime-suspend may be not
necessary.
