Hi Rafael, thanks for your reply.
1. We have currently verified this patch on the ADL-N Chromebook, running the suspend stress test 1000 times consecutively without encountering any issues.
2. Could you tell us what was the reason for suspend to hang back then?
The reason why I believe that we can start the async device's suspend threads upfront is that, during resume, a sync devices listed after certain async devices on the list do not actually rely on the implicit dependency provided by the order of the devices on the list. This is because if there is no consumer-supplier or parent-children relationship between these devices, the suspend routine of this sync device will be executed directly without waiting for the suspend routines of the async devices listed before it to complete. In other words, this sync device does not depend on the async devices listed before them. Therefore, during suspend, there is no need to ensure those async devices listed before the sync devices are awake before these sync devices complete their suspend routines. In summary, as long as we manage the dependencies between consumers/suppliers and parents/children relationships properly, we should be able to start the async devices' suspend routines upfront during suspend.
