Subject:
 [PATCH v3 5/9] PM: Check power.needs_force_resume in
 pm_runtime_force_suspend()

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

Add a power.needs_force_resume check to pm_runtime_force_suspend() so
it need not rely on the runtime PM status of the device when deciding
whether or not to return early.

With the new check in place, pm_runtime_force_suspend() will also skip
devices with the runtime PM status equal to RPM_ACTIVE if they have
power.needs_force_resume set, so it won't need to change the RPM
status of the device to RPM_SUSPENDED in addition to setting
power.needs_force_resume in the case when pm_runtime_need_not_resume()
return false.

That allows the runtime PM status update to be removed from
pm_runtime_force_resume(), so the runtime PM status remains unchanged
between the pm_runtime_force_suspend() and pm_runtime_force_resume()
calls.

This change potentially unbreaks drivers that call pm_runtime_force_suspend()
from their ->remove() callbacks because currently, if the device being
unbound from its driver has a parent with enabled runtime PM and/or
(possibly) device links respecting runtime PM to suppliers, and it is
RPM_ACTIVE when the remove takes place, pm_runtime_force_suspend() will
not drop the parent's child count and the suppliers' runtime PM usage
counters after force-suspending the device unless pm_runtime_need_not_resume()
returns 'true' for it.  Moreover, because pm_runtime_force_suspend()
changes the device's runtime PM status to RPM_SUSPENDED, in the above
case pm_runtime_reinit() will not cause those counters to drop, so they
will remain nonzero forever effectively preventing the devices in
question from runtime-suspending going forward.

This change is also needed for pm_runtime_force_suspend() to work
with PCI PM and ACPI PM after subsequent changes.  Namely, say
DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND is set for a PCI device and its driver uses
pm_runtime_force_suspend() as its ->suspend() callback.  If
pm_runtime_force_suspend() changed the runtime PM status of the
device to RPM_SUSPENDED, pci_pm_suspend_noirq() would skip the
device due to the dev_pm_skip_suspend() check.

---

v2 -> v3:
   * Update changelog (explanation why it potentially unbreaks some drivers and
     why the subsequent changes depend on it).
   * Reorder (it was [4/9] previously).

v1 -> v2: Corresponds to patch [2/9] (that was posted as [0/9] by mistake) in v1.
