So it seems to me that to fix 804951203aa5 the only thing
which needs to be done is remove the pmc_core_send_ltr_ignore()
call from cnp_core_init(), the other changes here are NOT
related to fixing the regression.
So IMHO it seems better to split this into 2 patches?
Also if this block the system from reaching PC10 should
this then not at least be done at suspend time and
undone at resume ? I'm not seeing anything in the current
code which does an equivalent on suspend/resume, so it
seems to me like this will cause a significant increase
on suspended power-usage if an ethernet cable is attached ?
Regards,
Hans
