Hi Mike,

thanks for your patch!

I have a comment about PM:

I'm not sure you should wrap the pm_runtime calls like this.
I think it is better to inline them.

Next, I think it is better to let suspend/resume, i.e. system PM
reuse runtime PM since you're implementing that. This is why
we invented PM runtime force resume and force suspend.

Here are some drivers that I implemented using that model:
drivers/iio/gyro/mpu3050-core.c
drivers/iio/accel/kxsd9.c
drivers/iio/magnetometer/ak8974.c

The short summary is:
- Only implement runtime suspend/resume.
- SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS(pm_runtime_force_suspend,
   pm_runtime_force_resume)
- In probe() enable runtime PM with autosuspend:
  pm_runtime_get_noresume(dev);
  pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
  pm_runtime_enable(dev);
  pm_runtime_set_autosuspend_delay(dev, NNNN);
  pm_runtime_use_autosuspend(dev);
  pm_runtime_put(dev);
- In remove() disable it like this:
  pm_runtime_get_sync(dev);
  pm_runtime_put_noidle(dev);
  pm_runtime_disable(dev);
- Any time the driver needs the hardware, call:
  pm_runtime_get_sync(dev);
- As soon as you're done using the hardware call:
  pm_runtime_mark_last_busy(dev);
  pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(dev);

The system PM will just hook into the same callbacks and suspend
the hardware using the existing runtime PM hooks.

This works fine in my drivers and saves some complexity and avoids
bugs.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
